"Had an amazing stay here! Brilliant room and lovely club amenities with free cake and coffee and incredible breakfast! Only the inside pool is included so you have to pay £60 for 2 hours in the evening to use the whole spa. I feel like one spa session should be included when paying for club level."

"Although this hotel is basically surrounded by fields, at the outskirts of town and you need a car to get there, they charge 10 pounds for parking. Where else are you to park. That is corporate greed in my opinion. For breakfast my wife and I just wanted to purchase a coffee and a piece of toast or pastry. No such choice possible. It's either a full buffet breakfast for 18 pounds or nothing."
