I only stayed the one night, and I didnt use many of the facilities, but it is a very nice hotel. There was a wedding on but I didnt really get disturbed by it. I used the pool which was nice if you like a little dip. The gym looked rather small but then hotel gyms always are. There are... more

The whole ambience was light and airy and the room was beautiful. Spacious, clean and tastefully furnished - this well outstripped many other hotels I've stayed in across England. Breakfast was a banquet and... more
