Clean rooms, good food, great place to stay

Spotless rooms, we had dinner in the restaurant which was really nice, good selections of drinks at the bar. Breakfast was really nice and cooked fresh to order. Rooms could do with at little bit of modernisation but overall a great place to stay and will definitely stay here again
