Everything about the hotel was amazing from the aesthetic to the service, the only bad part really was the noise, i woke up numerous times across all 3 days of my stay to building work as i could hear drilling and other noise.so that was quite jarring

We had a lovely 1 night stay. The room was very clean and comfortable. The leisure centre was very noisy and changing rooms were small and no explananation on how to use the locker and wrist band. Had to ask for help. Breakfast was lovely.

Came with my husband and 2 children 4&5) and my inlaws. Husband and father inlaw played golf...they had a fantastic time. Mother in law and i took the children swimming and went to the park. Lots to do wven though the children were too young for the big activities. We couldn't eat at the main restaurant in the evening as there was no space for the 6 of us which was disappointing. I think guests at the hotel should have some sort of priority to dine first. We went to a local pub for our evening meal instead. It was lovely but not ideal. Would have rather stayed on site. Breakfast was delicious. Room was great.
