Nice hotel ,staff friendly and polite. Bed was a bit hard but comfortable however the pillows were far too firm and just couldn't get a good night's sleep, in the end had to use the cushion as it was a bit softer but got too hot so alas had a bad nights sleep. We (2) had separate rooms but the lounge had a big 1-5 mtrs sliding door to give those useing the toilet some privacy but didn't give any protection from someone coming from the main bedroom. Would be better to remove sliding door and replce with a door to bathroom. Room and bedding were spotless, so ashame the pillows and privacy spoilt it.

Lady on reception was exceptionally welcoming and keen to assist us and make our stay enjoyable. We have stayed here before but now some of the areas could do with a bit of redecoration and renovation. Excellent location and great views of the lake.
