Stayed in the three bed, and were impressed with the size. Full lounge dining, with spectacular views across lake. Bathroom upstairs and downstairs, as well as a laundry with washer and drier. Kitchen was large and everything worked well, including coffee capsule machine. Facilities were great, used the BBQ a couple of nights. Swimming pool was well heated and kids loved it. There was also a pool table indoors which the adults had a great time using. Book library had a range of titles and the tv had a ton of channels (Sky, internet based, and regular) So even when raining no one was bored.

There was a small playground which was a bonus for the kids. WiFi was good. Room was tidy. Caution in bathroom, tiles in shower and bathroom are quite slippery when wet, recommend towel on floor when exiting shower. While bathroom was nice iit has been well used, aged silicone in shower. Kitchen Facilities were awesome, even had complimentary biscuits. Great having a small bottle of milk given on arrival. Check fridge is set at 7 otherwise your milk will be slightly frozen the next day. Laundry had washing machine and dryer in the room which was so good, recommend upgrading to condenser dryer so that water condensation is not dispersed throughout the unit. May be hard to get to the room if you have knee issues, as you have to walk up the stairs, there's no elevator,so check room accessibility when booking.

I liked that the resort was nearby to restaurants and local attractions. The hot tub and pool were good. The managers were friendly. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I had to go down to ask for more toilet paper as there was only one roll provided and no spares. The body wash in the shower ran out on our 3rd night there. But overall it was on OK place to stay.
