Lovely couple in Dan & Daniella as they didn't stop looking after us 😀 clean rooms and relaxed atmosphere in the breakfast room 😀 and by the way the breakfast was out of this world
Only one issue could have done with…
Dan was a great host. Breakfast cooked to order was lovely.
Bathroom small and could do with refresh. Window rattled if open. Thought a little over priced for the 'offer'.
The rooms were very clean and comfortable
The shower was in the middle of the room, the staff were not chatty
