Kingsmills Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This is a true luxury spa hotel. Great location, great facilities, health club across the parking lot. I had a large room in the older part of the hotel and it was very comfortable. Breakfast was absolutely superb and the bed was very comfortable. This would be a great place for more than a one-night stay!"
