I stayed last night at this hotel and it was clean and modern. The food is better than average. Service was friendly and attentive. I would reccomend this hotel if you are staying in the surrounding area.

I have stayed at this hotel twice in the past few months, both times for two nights. It is very nicely decorated throughout and the rooms are very nice. The bed is enormous and very comfortable - I had to have two blankets though as the quilt wasn't warm enough for me, and we were lent a fire for the... More

Utterly transformed since the refurbishment, this is a really pleasant and clean hotel with great facilities. There's a good sized bar / restaurant area, not to mention a lovely looking pool and gym (although I didn't use them). The rooms themselves are well fitted out - nicely furnished, good modern bathroom, decent sized flat screen TVs, teas and coffees, working... More

A really great day, the buffet served to the little ones first was a great idea,chicken nuggets and chips - just what they wanted and then when they were fed and happily playing their games came the adults food. What a great idea, roast beef baguettes served with onions, gravy and then the mustard or horseradish sauce topped up with... More
