10/10 Excellent
"Lovely hotel, we stayed in one of The annex’s across the car park, it was Clean comfortable and spacious maybe a tiny bit noisy from the road out the back but would still stay again, the outside area of the hotel was lovely and we had great weather which enhanced it more. Both breakfast and lunch were delicious (we didn’t eat there in the evening). My only criticism would be I don’t think it’s right that you have to pay for the car park, (there is limited free street parking on the same road but no one told us about that and happily took our £27) and the inside spa area is a little cramped with some people arriving with absolutely no where to sit so of the weather had been bad it wouldn’t have been so good. And it’s a shame there’s no where you can have ur lunch In a robe getting changed in and out of ur swim stuff was a bit of a pain but overall we loved our stay."
