Lovely overnight stay

Lovely stay and without asking recognized my husband was challenged and changed our room to accommodate us. Breakfast was delicious and plenty of choice, complimented with the lovely views. Nice bar very reasonably priced but sadly we were unable to try the restaurant as it's closed on friday.
