A great gem of a hotel, this was our first visit and will return soon. The staff were really friendly and seemed happy to be there. The hotel was really nice and quite impressive, our room was lovely, a bit of wear and tear noted but nothing a lick of paint wont sort out, sitting in the bar area was very comfortable there is a good variety of food and beverages on offer, the food was delicious and you know its all freshly prepared, the breakfast was great, lots of choice, some options had a small surcharge, The grounds of the hotel were well maintained and there is ample parking available. The rooms were spacious and clean. Extra pillows available if you need them and there is lovely toiletries.
