Overnight stopover
Hotel rates normally too expensive for us but due to Hotels.com silver members offer was able to enjoy an amazing overnight stopover. Complementary in room welcome cocktail, shortbread and chocolates, lovely touch. Everything about this accommodation was to the highest of standards including staff. Will always check room availability when making future trips in area.
