clean roomfresh linendelicious dinnerinsufficient socketsclosed parknon functional tv
the room was really clean i found the bed linen to be lovely and fresh the bathroom had plenty of hot water. our dinner at the inn was delicious the menu choices are very good. i found the breakfast to be equally good and had a variety of options.
there were only two sockets in the family room that is insufficient for a family. the park was also closed with no signage until you got to the park. the tv in the room also did not work so i was unable to use it.

The room was super clean and comfortable, and the bed linen felt great! the bathroom was excellent, and i got a good shower with plenty of hot water. i really enjoyed dinner at the inn. The menu had great choices, and breakfast was equally delicious and filling.
the hotel made me walk with heavy suitcases around the building on a muddy gravel car park using a back entrance, i found that not good.
