"The staff were so lovely and very attentive. The breakfast was more than enough, well stocked and plenty to choose from. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and you could have fresh towels and tea / coffee re stocked every day if you wish. There was plenty of parking at the rear of the hotel for free. There did seem however to have a problem with those little fruit fly’s in the bar area that were very annoying. Even ended up with a few in our drinks"
