“The recent refurbishment has clearly brought a new energy to the property, with spaces appearing modern, exceptionally clean, and well-maintained, even down to the car park payment system. Guests consistently note the genuine friendliness and efficiency of the staff, alongside the comforting quality of the beds and a breakfast offering considerable choice. It strikes me as a place where thoughtful touches, like complimentary pool access and well-appointed rooms, translate into excellent value.”
