"On first walking into our room, we noticed how clean and refreshed everything was. We had everything we needed with cutlery, crockery and essentials. The toaster and kettle were good quality. The bed was comfortable and linen was perfect. So nice to have a lounge and good tv in the room as well as a small table and chairs, inside and outside. Would definitely stay here again."
