I had read some awful reviews about the Wishing Well but our family booked 3 rooms, one was a family room. All were basic but all were spacious and clean. The staff were friendly and welcoming.
We didnt eat here but did use the bar which looked as if it had been recently updated.
We arrived the room key didn’t work went back to reception got another card still had problems with it got in after 20 try’s I booked a double room got 2 single beds one bed was broken and they used a mattress in bed base to hold it up one skinny pillow , tv didn’t work all units are dated and egpealing off
