Excellent venue for family reunion
Excellent faciliities. We enjoyed having the swimming pool. The bedroom and bathroom was comfortable and spotlessly clean. Staff were very helpful, both on Reception and in the breakfast area. The breakfast menu was great . Car parking was sufficient. There was no traffic noise and the grounds were attractive and well kept.
