“We had a wonderful time, the hotel is brilliant apart from the kids club issue.”
The location is very good, easy access to the town, bus stop and lift. The boot room and hire shop being in the hotel are very convenient..We have two children’s so the pool was a very good addition but was too cold, the outdoor pool was warmer but small..
