fantastic stay!

comfortable bedquick servicecrowded car park
The swimming pool and gym were superb. the bed was very comfortable, and my room was very quiet. I loved the radio in the bathroom! i ordered a cheese sandwich in the bar area. It was delicious, and service was quick.
the shower was more of a drizzle than rainfall. the car park was crowded upon arrival, and it was difficult to find a space.
