The property is lovely. The rooms are huge if a little bit dated but really good quality furnishings etc. bad was massive. Unfortunately the weather was foul so didn’t really get much of a chance to enjoy the pool area however the food in the poolside bar was decent. My only criticism re staff is they really pushed you to order which put us off signing there. I like to relax and felt hurried one night sending the staff away 5 times. Once the food had arrived you really had to chase for the bill. I’d stay again. Please just ask the waiting staff to back off a little. I would understand if we ate late but this was always early evening. They were very polite just overly hurrying

Fantastic hotel, great value for money compared to many other hotels close by. Excellent breakfast. Outside restaurant was very good. Nice pool, good sunbeds and towels. Really nice friendly staff. There were problems though with our suite. Shower mixer falling apart. Aircon stopped working. Sliding terrace door faulty No centre lights so generally dark. We will definitely stay there again.
