Stayed here for 2 nights while at a family wedding (wedding not at hotel!) Staff were great and very accommodating for our 3 year old twins. Quiet room with nice flat screen TV and decent bathroom/toiletries too. Breakfast also very good, we did catch it at the very end so some things were occasionally running low, but overall the food...

This is a well run hotel with great leisure facilities. Good size swimming pool and well run gym. Downside is the price of food in the hotel which is costly if you want dinner at night. But good value if you have B&B as there is a good old fashion english buffet breakfast. Cleaning could be better but the rooms... More

We recently stayed here on two occasions due to family illness in the area. The staff were very attentive. Rooms were clean, breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. We ate in the lounge/bar on a number of occasions, where the food was good. Although on the back roads, it is in fact very close to the main arteries... More

I was the first one to reach before the other couple & my partner & the staff were most welcoming. We were on a 2night All Inclusive Package & the staff was very polite & helpful. They accommodated us in every way which was so nice. The rooms were nice & the bed was very comfortable. The only little draw... More

We did not fancy eating in the restaurante in the evening, the prices appeared rather high and selection small so we walked into the village and ate in one of the pubs. Breakfast was not... More
