Excellent Value and Friendly Staff
friendly staffupdated roomhigh food quality
All the staff were very friendly! Our king ensuite room was updated perfectly. It offered excellent value. We were advised prior to stay to book our evening meal as they are busy on Fridays. They certainly were! The quality of food and service remained high.
The music was quite loud one night, but it stopped at a reasonable hour.
