Great find of a hotel offering great value. Room was big, clean and comfortable with small kitchenette providing flex. 3 pools, all quiet whenever we were there Onside coffee hut, cafe and pub all good, although the pub was our favourite for post dinner drink! Staff were really welcoming and helpful.
