Relaxing Getaway

free parkingfriendly receptionlarge tvroom noise
Free parking was available when I arrived early afternoon. Reception service was lovely and friendly. The room had plenty of tea, coffee, sugar and milk. The items were replenished on the second day-. The towels were good. There was a large tv, and the shower had plenty of hot water.
The noise from the room above bothered me. The sounds woke the children because of the loud movement above. The timing was unfortunate with the other guests at that time.
Dining
9/10
The breakfast buffet included bacon, sausage, scrambled egg, beans, and hash browns. There was also fresh fruit, toast, yoghurt, croissants, danish pastries, cereals, and mini blueberry muffins. Orange juice, apple juice, and a Lavazza machine offered various coffee options.

WOW, what a find!

complimentary upgradegarden viewheated railconstant noise
The staff were very good. I received a complimentary upgrade to a cottage room because I asked for a better view, I got it. The new room was much bigger and provided a view of the garden. Breakfast was good with lots of options and nice presentation. Heated towel rail dried our swimwear fast.
The placement of the room so close to the main road caused constant traffic noise. Buses and lorries rumbled past all night. It was hard to sleep.

The staff is very friendly and ready to help guests. One staff member had great knowledge about the area and helped us a lot. The reception let us park before check-in and called us early to allow earlier check-in.
