Rooms were very large, clean and nicely done. Beds were lovely to sleep on. Staff were young and worked hard at looking after everyone. We found the rooms a bit hot, overheated More

I have just returned from a coach holiday staying at the above hotel, which is part of the Forest Hotel group. It is quite a large building split into different wings. The wing we were in consisted of 145 en suite rooms, my room had a double bed in it, a nice sized en suite with bath and shower. The... More

Me and my husband had a 2 night break via Groupon and visited the hotel last month. The hotel was very dated (late 1970's) and although the room was large it was very old looking and drab. There were patches all around the base of the bed and the unti around the bed had chunks missing out it. They had... More

We booked a weekend break (11/12th May 2012) via KGB Deals and then read the reviews so I was very apprehensive about what we would be greeted by when we arrived. I'm pleased to say that the staff were welcoming, polite and helpful and that our room, on the second floor, was fine. It was a good size and we... More

I booked the bank holday weekend for my daughters 2nd birthday as it is about 30 mins from peppa pig world. The hotel was disgraceful, unhygienic and unsafe. I have stayed in some dodgy hotels in my time but never have I experienced something so disgusting. On arrival to our room we were greeted with a bunk bed that was... More

This is a rather large and rambling hotel. A somewaht typical sizable and slightly tired looking residence both outside and inside. However, the hotel performs reasonably well in providing a pleasant stay near the seaside. It is in a fairly quite residential area, with lots of other guest houses, so those who want to be very close to the sea... More

We had vouchers from buyagift.com and chose this hotel. The breakfast was pretty good but full of old people who seemed to be pretty rude - not the hotels' fault. They were full up and we had to move room after the 1st night as the shower was a trickle, the loo didn't flush but we were directly behind the... More

My friend and I spent friday to Sunday at this hotel to go to the BIC to see Daniel O`Donnell. I wish it had been nearer but we managed with buses and taxis so I could leave my car at the hotel. We had a very good time. The room was spacious enough and the beds were comfortable. I agree... More

My wife and I spent Friday to Sunday at the hotel as part of a package organised by our local dance club. We had about 40 couples in our party. Generally speaking it was a successful weekend and the overall organisation by the hotel was good - especially bearing in mind there was another large group there as well. The... More

Dear Josser3 I was disappointed to read your review, particularly with reference to your dietary requirements, we always keep Gluten Free products in stock and our meals are generally without wheat products, apart from the obvious! We frequently are asked to cater for Gluten Free clients and it's never any trouble...I really don't understand why you would have been told... More
