This was a Christmas trip for my Mum, I thought I give her a surprise treat, we booked in on 22nd December, great location as described but I want to say a huge thank you to the staff, warm welcome, swift booking in, the Junior suite was amazing the room was clean and tidy, and such lovely touches like mini bar and Nespresso coffee machine and plenty of towels and soft dressing gowns, and the breakfast was great selection, hot and cold to choose from only drawback a bit hectic around the toaster . Will use this hotel again and would recommend 100 percent, thank you for a perfect start to Christmas, see you soon.

Clean room, comfy bed and polite staff. Loved the chrismas decorations on the ground floor. My only issue is the buffet breakfast was not vegan friendly. All food was grouped together , freash fruit placed next to cold meat. Cooked options only included mushroom and tomato's which was also placed right next to egg and cooked meat.

Idris on reception was delightful. Professional, chatty and was happy to give us information about the local area. We requested fresh milk for tye room and went and fetched this himself for us. 5 star service from him😊 All the staff were chatty and courteous and couldn’t do enough for you. We would stay again for sure. We had a family room booked and this was big enough for 3 adults
