Fantastic place
Lovely quiet spot. Check in was quick and easy. Room was spotless and very comfy. The bar/food area was cosy and the food was absolutely spot on. Both food and drink were reasonably priced. Will be booking again.

Weekend Break
The small hotel is in a small village. A good location to explore the area. The food and service excellent. The swimming pool and sunbeds a real treat. The accommodation is a bit dated, but bed comfy. The price very reasonable and really enjoyed our stay.
