a fabulous stay!

private buildingfriendly staffeasy access
The apartment was so lovely and clean. it really reminded me of a secure and private building. Keyless entry made everything easy! breakfast at the restaurant was just ten pounds, and the staff, especially alex, were super friendly and helpful. alex remembered my name which was so sweet!
The vegetarian options were a little limited. Only one choice on the menu.

My room was actually an apartment in a separate annexe. It was a short walk from the green. the apartment included kitchen facilities and a shower room. it had a secure and private keyless entry building with on-site parking. i had breakfast, which cost an additional £10. It was delicious. the staff are amazing, alex and the wait staff are very helpful.
The room was too far to go. It was a hot, stuffy room. the noisy road outside was also an issue.
