"Firstly it was a fantastic place to stay and will definitely return. Food was brilliant and staff were lovely. Rooms were clean and overall it was a great stay. If I had to be very picky, I'd say it was a shame the sauna wasn't working when I was there, the steam room, swimming pool were fine but the Jacuzzi hardly had any bubbles, but again, not a big problem at all, Had a lovely stay there."
