What people say

Staff very friendly and helpful. It was good to be able to sit and have a meal after a long journey. A more comfortable lounge area would have been nice, ie sofa's for us to sit together and relax as a family. Your pull out bed was excellent and a really good size. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived and were welcomed. The room was superb and had everything we needed. Well done to all the staff. 10/10.
