    Great experience from the moment we arrived until we left. First class service and a real genuine friendly attitude. The outdoor pool is private and beautiful weather permitting and open until 8pm unlike others that close at 6pm . Highly recommended for a lovely break. Thanks to the whole team.

    We visited the pool and bar. The pool seating area was very run down and unkempt, to this day I have a piece of glass in my foot. Cold water pool, outdoors, small but perfect on a hot day. A bit of an awkward setup getting to the pool. It just needs some reconfiguration. The cafe seating area is lovely, inside and outside. Hot drinks and fairy free milk options. Excellent service.

    Service was good , my room yes quite small and feel the decor needs updating the upstairs hallways are very dreary the rooms are not a reflection of the reception and bar area !!which was disappointing . BUT I did book a massage at the spa and this was exceptional george is a credit to this business very welcoming ,passionate about his job and the service the spa provides is above what I expected . A big thankyou to you 👍👍

    don't bother coming here the rooms are hot and very tiny. they seem to run the bar and the restaurant not to bad but they should put more consideration into the whole business. needs a definite review if they are good enough to run a hotel. I only booked in today and leaving 10 days early so its pretty bad here

    I am currently in my room. It is after 10pm There is a party going on downstairs music is blasting very very loud the floors are vibrating. I have called reception and spoken to the manager… they say there’s nothing they can do until 1am. This is ridiculous!!!! I could ignore the dated decor, dirty carpets that haven’t been washed in decades and even the old mattress. But this is taking the piss. Especially after complaining about the noise issue and being told “nothing we can do”. Is that how you treat paying customers? This is absolutely disgraceful. Shame on this establishment. I definitely do not recommend!!!! UPDATE - at 11:30pm I went down and practically had to beg the manager to change my room. It took a further 20mins of discussion and him being very sassy and rude with terrible attitude saying no no no to finally change the room. I slept very poorly.
