Breakfast was Luke warm with only one set of tongs for 4 food items. Potato Scones were like tortilla chips they were so overcooked. Spout on tea pot was broken, mismatched cups on table, food on salt and pepper pots. Lack of care and attention to detail.

Bit disappointed for what we paid for the hotel. It was lovely downstairs but although the room appeared clean the less obvious areas required a good dusting. There was also no fridge which we have had in all the hotel rooms we have stayed in in recent years. The buffet breakfast was an also disappointing. On the first day the hot food was not hot and was slightly undercooked. Second day was acceptable but the third day it was overcooked, particularly the bacon. However all staff we had dealings with were very pleasant and helpful. The swimming pool and leisure centre was also excellent.
