The staff are professional yet friendly and accommodating, we were always well looked after at breakfast, at the pool and at the bar area. Food was delicious and wine selection was good. The staff helped us with a few crossword clues! Our suite was large with a striking design, and just a step from the pool area. Room was incredibly clean, and plunge pool on the terrace was a lovely touch at the end of a hot day. Location is outside of the main centre, but easily walkable. There is a car park but we found it difficult getting out (might have been our underpowered hire car), but would recommend parking on the main road Overall a great stay - look forward to visiting you again! ##### Anthony Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalie 1 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean, convenient and lovely helpful staff. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c48c65bc-c956-44dc-951d-15049dbe16f7-1751378543807.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Natalie Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Damien 4 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Séjour fantastique!
