We enjoyed our stay and could not fault our room which was cleaned every day. All the staff were very polite and friendly. Our only comment would be that the menus stayed the same throughout the week which was a little limited. However the Sunday carvery was excellent!

A fab break

It was just what we needed. Easy to find and a lovely position. It wasn't too far from everything but was not in the madness of the city. Huge room and well cleaned and always organised by the time we returned each day
