WE enjoyed the tranquillity of the location. We enjoyed walking around the lake and sitting drinking coffee looking out over the lake. The decor is a bit dated but very clean and tidy.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel was very dated and tired but for one night it would do. We felt it needed an upgrade. We had a lakeside room but couldn’t have the door open during the night and there were no windows to open so the room got hot. The bed we had was very lumpy and we could feel the springs through the mattress topper this made it one of the worst nights I’ve had in a hotel. The staff were very polite and attentive on reception and in the restaurant. We had breakfast. Again the food options and the layout were not as we’ve had in other hotels. Two toasters for the dining room was not enough. We chose the English breakfast option. The portion on the plate was a child size for an adult. The sausage was under done and the fried egg was over done.
