The outdoor games area was well maintained, the indoor games room was equipped with table tennis, table football and a pool table which had all the balls for both pool and snooker. The pool table was in need of some TLC but had four or five cues a rest and chalk. The swimming pool was vary good with a large pool and hot tub. The upstairs bedrooms and bathroom of the accommodation were bright and hairy, but the down stair living area smelled of dog and three piece suite was tired, but comfortable and took several applications of Febreze to reduce the smell. Overall we had a good time and would stay there again.
