Room was large and spacious with the kitchen inclusions being the best I've stayed in. Room was clean and much larger than anticipated, they have really put thought into what to include. Right down to the clothes airer, perfect for hanging towels and swimmers after a swim at the beach or pool.

The staff there were simply amazing. The property and facilities were is good condition. However, the wifi was very poor. There was not connectivity at all and this soured our experience especially for the kids on a rainy day! There was no consideration of this impact when discussed or a remedy.

Spacious and clean room. A bit dated, could do with a TV upgrade. The wifi was unacceptably rubbish, slow and dropped out constantly. In an area with poor mobile phone reception, wifi must be better. Overall a pleasant stay, not sure I'd stay again though.
