Good friendly staff. Clean rooms if a little on the small side. Disappointed by the limited menu probably because of coronavirus. However the hotel along the toad seemed to manage.

Very dissappointing -as we have transformed the hotel and are sorry to hear that- since the new management took over 1 may. This summer so far we have repainted all outside- added plants front and back - painted the lobby- puit in new technology throughout- added internet in the rooms-added all new bar equipment - put in new bedspreads in every room- siliconed every bathrooms --added a new wooden bar floor-and repainted and added new pictures throughout the public areas- added a brand new coffee shop- made the terrace restaurant a seafood one with a new fresh menu - introduced bands at weekends- remodelled the gardens -put brand new signage and menus all over - added new uniforsm- added new table settings -redesigned the whole breakfast so both fresh continental and cooked - and about 100 other things to0 long to mention - when you are full it is difficult to more in summer. We are trying hard to deliver a good product which is why we now scote 9 out of 10 on all review sites and reviews like this just undermine the huge effort the team is making.

Dissappointing- as we try very hard and have made huge changes to the hotel since we took over 1 May to improve - we score on average 9 out 10 on over 300 reviews -so we are most dissappointed -when we get an anonymous review like this with zero detail to assist us to improve .So much of the hotel has changed in the short time we have had control and we have a great team that we are proud of and will just continue to plug away .
