Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: They had fresh crossaints for breakfast which was yummy, a decent car park and was a quiet area.
Negative: For breakfast they only provide cold stuff such as cereal, mixed fruit, crossaints and toast, they don’t do any hot food like a full English breakfast or pancakes or anything hot, if they did I feel like it would be a good benefit and you would feel more full .
Summary: Hard mattress and small room but we got to move rooms no extra charge so good overall
