The room was clean and tidy had everything we needed for our stay .awesome views of the lake close to eaterys and shops. The spa bath was relaxing and the bathromm was a good size. Had everything you needed for a short or long stay . One of few we've found where you can use a laundry room with both washing machine and dryer and at no cost . Only down fall is that the room was heavily sprayed with room freshener and which wasn't nice at all . But would highly recommend definitely 👌.

We had a great stay! The room was clean, tidy, and exactly as pictured. It was lovely arriving to a warm, cosy room, which made us feel comfortable straight away. The staff were all friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and the amenities were excellent. The kitchenette was especially useful, particularly when travelling with young children. We were a family of four with two children under five, and this accommodation was a fantastic choice. It was comfortable, family-friendly, and only a pleasant walk into town. We’d happily stay here again and would definitely recommend it to other families.
