Our stay didn't start off the best, as I arrived having suffered travel sickness on our journey! Right from the off the staff were great. They could not do enough to make me feel better. That evening we had arranged to go out but again I was unwell. Our friends came to the hotel and the staff made us very comfortable in the snug. Making sure we had everything we needed before they left. The Hotel is very comfortable and inviting. The room was a family room which was large with a lovely ensuite. The Hotel was spotless, comfortable and the staff amazing. We will definitely recommend to others and
