Nice and clean and comfortable but just missing the little details- booking said bath/shower combination but there were no taps to fill the bath; just a shower head. Struggled to fill the kettle with the sink so small and TV unpredictable.

The lady at the reception and the bar staff were great. Breakfast room service was great and incredible portion sizes. Well worth the price. A real shame that it is shut on a Sunday. House keeping were asked to come back as my partner was getting changed. That did not come back that day, nor the next. 3 day stay and no freshen up.

Comfort and space for the traveller
We stayed twice on our last trip, once on the way up and again on the way back. Our King Studio Room was comfortable and spacious with the King bed, table for 2 and 2 lounge chairs which were very much appreciated after travelling most of the day. Dinner in the restaurant was a highlight with exceptional food served both days. We will definitely return!
