My overall stay was okay, however was very disappointed in regards to what was on offer. There was no Cable, no ability to link to a TV. The layout of the photo’s for the room did not indicate the actual size of the room very well. One of the lights on my room was short circuiting. The venue feels run down and tired. Just disappointed overall and did not feel it was very good value for money. However if you are looking for some peace and quite there is plenty of that available here.

Thank you for providing your feedback. Although is not favorable to receive unpleasant feedback it certainly helps highlight areas we may improve upon. I'm very saddened to read you thought the complex was run down as there have been vast improvements made and a lot of positive feedback received by other travelers since the resort was purchased in January.

Very disappointed in our stay - PowerPoints and TVs didn’t work. Breakfast- very limited and basic options for the money. Equipment such as the toaster requires upgrades as it doesn’t work and is so old

Very unfortunate to read this anonymous review. It would have to be extremely unusual for the power points, TV's and toaster to all not work and our staff not be aware of it. If it was the case the unit would not have been rented out as it would have been blocked for maintenance repairs to take place. Weve not received any feedback from a guest regarding this and Id certainly like to think if nothing was working when you checked in that you would have let us know as this would be a huge inconvenience on anyone's stay.

How well outside was looked after, we didn’t like the look of the carpet in the hotel, it had a bit of a smell, and was all wrinkled up needs to be relayed with new carpet. water pressure was not very good.

Thank you for your recent feedback regarding your stay. We are currently in the process of approving new carpet for the levels which we agree, will have a dramatic difference in presentation. Hopefully we can welcome you back soon and you will notice the continual improvements being made.

Expensive for old resort not serviced every day. Lovely staff and restaurant great but only one menu for lunch and dinner needs better options.
