Clean and tidy place to stay. Parking was complementary but requires registration at reception. No fridge in room which lost a star for me. The automated voice in the lift sounded bored. Not quite Marvin the robot with brain the size of a planet but made me laugh. Breakfast was included and was pretty reasonable. Recommend!

The property was difficult to locate via…the Sat Nav it took us to another accommodation place and we had to call the Property to get better directions!
