My fourth time here, and it's consistently great! The rooms are always comfortable and spotless, with all the essentials. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Love the convenience of having a restaurant, cafe, and bottle shop on site, plus they'll deliver dinner right to your room! Plenty of parking available too. Always a positive experience; I'll happily stay again!

Everything was clean. Quiet location. Bed uncomfortable. Toilet seat would have to be the most uncomfortable I've ever used. No where in shower to put shampoo etc. Just basic tea and coffee and didn't offer a biscuit.

Reception was very welcoming and happy to assist with my requests, Having a small light left on and air con going for my arrival at night was greatly appreciated. Although I didn’t use it, the option of having an evening meal brought to your room was a great idea. Lovely hot water and comfy bed. Plenty of parking space. Traffic was a little noticeable but ear plugs would be an easy fix.
