Great place for a family stay
We spent 4 days here with our extended family. Had 3 different rooms, which were spacious and comfy - ours had a small kitchen and table. The pool and hot tub are perfect for kids, who even swam in cool, gray March weather. The Oak Tree Café has great breakfasts and very fast service. This was our second stay, and we'll be back.
