We really enjoyed our stay we couldn't get a facial booked in which was disappointing, however our swimming was lovely and Nessie looked after us

Slight disappointment

Pros: It was clean. Room spacious. Able to park on site. Proximity to venue for party we were attending. Cons: Having to pay £5 on top of room price to park! Extortionate drinks prices in hotel bar. Complimentary drinks provisions were scant, minimal at best. Lack of loo brush in bathroom.

Pros: Location, facilities, room size, friendly staff. Cons: The swimming pool around the edge just above the water line in filthy. The fridge in the room stank of gone off milk. Cleaner did come to clean but wasn't enough. If I was on a longer stay I would of asked to move rooms. Also fridge wasn't cold. The curtain had come off on a couple of clips so was hanging down slightly at one end. The bath had a chip in it, which was quite sharp.

Great breakfast & lovely team throughout the hotel!

Always a great breakfast. They will make a filter coffee too, if you ask for it, which is a welcome change from the machines🙂

Pros: My room was fantastic, so quiet, amazing. But of course it cost a small fortune! The joys of work expenses. Cons: It was odd that you had to book the pool, I wouldn't have minded if I got there and it was quiet, but it was still fairly busy (too busy for proper swimming) when I got there. Also charging for parking is just pure greed when you already pay for a room, especially in a location on the edge of the city where you have space. I will always knock a few points off a review when you charge for parking.
