Enjoyed our stay.
"Stay was so good, staff were friendly and always smiling the room was spotless good breakfast and although the bathroom/ shower was fine I can’t complain, but would say that an upgrade of the bathroom wouldn’t go amiss, overall I have no complaints and would certainly stay there again."
