The king bed in the Executive Twin Room was very comfortable. The staff offered helpful service throughout my visit. The hotel provides convenient parking right next to the building.
The bathroom design felt a bit dated.

I found the staff very helpful and friendly. the breakfast menu had a big range of items. It suited me well. the evening meal was tasty, and the bar had a good range of drinks.
the cottage rooms were very small, and the bathroom needed refurbishment. it was old, chipped, and dirty. i ordered fish and chips assuming it would be good, but the batter was soft. the fish was mushy.

Fantastic Stay!
fresh breakfastgood locationfaulty shower
I loved the freshly cooked breakfast served on a hot plate. It also had a great choice of food. The location offered a nice setting for the hotel. The bath towels were a good size. I certainly enjoyed my stay. The staff were amazing!
My room key did not work. The shower also stopped working. It needs some maintenance. I trust this is a one off thing, and that next time will be perfect.
