The room was nice and big, with 2 good size TV's. The lighting was very poor in the room. The bathroom was spacious with an excellent shower. The bed was very comfortable. 2 good sized Seaview windows, both of which needed a good clean. Reception staff were very helpful and the bar area wascvery smart but there was no Sky TV, which they

Lovely hotel. Room very spacious and clean. Incredibly comfy bed. My daughter and I really enjoyed the pool. Only thing that let the visit down was the room was very cold and a draft was coming from the window. Carpark was also like an ice rink, could have done with better gritting.
