This review is fairly irrelevant as it closed for good a few days after we left. I felt sorry for the staff as they were given very little notice. The bar and restaurant were closed during my stay but they did honour the breakfasts that we booked

Good stay untill breakfast
We stayed here with our son who’s 1 year old. In the morning at breakfast we asked for a high chair. One high chair was already being used so they went to get another and nobody appeared back. We asked again and still no high chair. Before we left we asked at reception why nobody came back to us to be told they didn’t have anymore high chairs. This is a large family hotel and could only provide one high chair for the whole place which is shocking. Everything else at the hotel was perfect untill this service and lack of communication and honesty about only having one high chair.

Unplanned stop over
This was a last minute booking due to a change of plan with my wife having breaking her leg in the local area! Check in staff were excellent, no lift in the hotel though which was an issue with a broken leg and the check out staff were absent so we had to leave and pay later over the phone!

Basic but clean. Staff very helpful and polite. Menu very limited. Not sure why they felt the need to vacuum the stairs at 3:50am, other than that a very pleasant stay.

Wanted to use the pool
Staff were very polite and nice but it was disappointing that the pool and spa were not open which was why I booked this hotel. Also breakfast was an extra and it seemed that there was little option left when I went down, almost as if everyone was expected to eat at 7am and leave but some are on holiday.
