"Room was nice and spacious. Check in was excellent. Leisure facilities were not up to a good standard. Changing rooms and showers were not clean, the swimming pool and jacuzzi were unbelievably cold. One of the jacuzzi’s was taped up and not working. Sauna was average and busy I think because no one could use the pool due to the temperature."

"Front of house staff (Receptionist) was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy. I believe that some of the rooms have been updated, which will be likely to happen with the room I had, which needs attention in the bathroom area, but overall very good. Pleased that the WiFi is included in the room rate, unlike the bargain chains. All the staff I encountered were very friendly. Even had a nice chat with the Handyman."
