A few things in the room and pools needed addressing, but we adapted, these did not affect our stay. The room was ideal for our needs, needed a bit of upkeep. Would recommend this property to others. Cosy room and comfortable beds.

Great place to stay

The comfort and convenience of our unit, the Garden Suite, was very very much better than its street apeal. My partner has trouble walking, she has had a stroke, but the parking next to the step free food and the very convenient layout and comfort of our unit made our stay a real pleasure.
