I was very disappointed. It was dirty, run down and being on the lake front I was expecting the rooms to have a view. Won't be returning to stay at this property.

The room was very small and very hot - however there was a fan provided which was great. The only crockery in the room was glasses, cups and teaspoons, but on request I was provided with some plates, knives, folks and spoon. Overall the location was awesome and the price was great compared to others around it. The Social Club meals were lovely and reasonably priced and the staff were very friendly.

Highly recommended

We had a really lovely stay. Very comfortable room. Highly recommend the restaurant, especially for the view. It’s a little walk from the town centre but the view on the way makes up for that!
