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.

Relaxing

All staff, ( reception, spa, housemaids) were excellent. Room was clean but found the pillows too hard and uncomfortable and the room was a bit noisy being at the back above the kitchen. Teaspoons would be handy for making cups of tea instead of sticks !

Lovely few days on the North East coast. Breakfast was just what you need with both cooked options and fruit/pastry. The staff were lovely in all areas of the hotel including the gym&pool. You can't go far wrong. Our room was comfy, clean and perfect for a short stay.

Not enough towels or pillows in room to start, bathroom could be refreshed but a decent size, shower had to be stepped up into & wasn’t very big. Bed was comfortable. We were in 133 & it was a trek to get to it. Looked out to the car park at back & got to listen to the garbage & bottles being dumped. Found a spider on my towel this morning.

Good choice overall

Hotel is a bit dated, but the bed was comfy. Missing some room basics like a mini fridge and water. Breakfast could be better, although evening food was very good. Best bar of the places we went to during the 4 day stay. Good
