10/10 Excellent
"Our stay was amazing. We had a seaview room with a balcony and spa pool and it was amazing. The room was huge and had more than we expected! The only annoyance was having the metal staircase clanging right outside the room and being woken early by that. The car park was chocca full when I came back from a work event but we absolutely love our room and the property. The location is great and it was incredible value for money. During our stay we were saying how much we want to stay here again but stay for longer!"
