We had a really good weekend over the New Year. The staff are so friendly. Comfortable room and loved eating in the Olympic Restaurant where the food is delicious. My only disappointment is I wish the excellent ceilidh band had been on the 31st December instead of the 1st January - otherwise a perfect weekend. More

My husband and I had a wonderful three day package for the New Year. The food was wonderful, the staff extremely friendly and the room and hotel facilities were all excellent. We will certainly consider returning for another stay some time in the near future. More

We went straight to the room, which was comfortable and spotlessly clean. Afternoon tea was taken in Hardy's bistro - a real, old-fashioned tea, with sandwiches (nice bread in fingers... More
