Great lakeside location. Large clean room. Had everything everything we needed. Lift to upstairs level was useful - though 'clunky'. Seemingly reliable though.

Such a lovely welcome from the gentleman on reception! Friendly, helpful, informative, just everything you could want on arrival at your accommodation. He even gave us an upgraded room with a wonderful view of the lake. Limited space for food prep but we knew it was microwave only, so we were prepared. A little noisy from other guests but not through the night, so we had a great sleep. Highly recommend for a short stay.
