10/10 Excellent
"Loved our stay. The self-catering accommodation was extremely clean and beds very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. The bar area we attended in the evenings was a little tired and could have done with a refurb. The entertainment was a bit basic but kids enjoyed it. The location was a bit remote but we enjoyed exploring the area and it was very quiet at night."
