We stayed for 4 nights, room was great, nice and warm on arrival and beds were comfy and looked fresh (we slept in top with our own blankets). Staff were nice, property close to Town, Supermarkets, Restaurants and Sports Fields where we had our Tournament. No daily housekeeping as advertised (we were told every 3 days and if we needed new towels to ask at reception). Maybe bigger or more milk if large groups or more then 4 people are staying. No Microwave or Toaster No Plates, Cereal Bowls or Cutlery Wi-Fi - Average Car Parking - People kept parking in our park (after going to reception after the first time, I ended up parking outside our room on the bottom floor).
