"Superb location good range at breakfast including alternative milks. Staff were super helpful with any queries. But as mentioned by others decor is outdated, but doesn’t take away from the experience. Kids especially loved the pool which is a good size and lifeguards fantastic at keeping everything fun, safe and controlled. Would definitely revisit!"
