Property was in a great location. Arrived there a bit early and was told I had to wait till the official check in time - reception didn't even check if the room was ready. Bit disappointing as I'd had a long drive. Pity about the roadworks going on nearby.

We liked the reception - very welcoming and helpful. The unit was clean and spacious and so comfortable. The outside front area was chipped and mouldy and off putting and so it was a lovely surprise to find the accommodation so good. The coffee, muffin and fruit in the morning was a delightful surprise.
