The room was great — parking at the door, clean and large room, help with my disability. The bonus was the included breakfast and we went to the restaurant for a lovely dinner meal. It’s very convenient to have the restaurant on site and there are lovely gardens to walk around.

This is a great place to stay and good value for money. The restaurant is also a good option for dinner and breakfast. The only improvement i would highlight is that the tiles needed regrouting in the room i was in.
