We booked a girls family weekend break here for my daughters 16th birthday. We really enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect.. we had everything we needed and any problems we had were dealt with quickly (which was only how to get the bubbles on the hot tub and not wanting to mess about with electrics)The place was spotless and they even allowed my sister to check in early to decorate for when me and my daughters arrived. Cant fault this placePerfect hosts and I highly recommend. The Price for april 9 of us fri to mon was brilliant especially when 6 were paying as it kept the cost way down. 10 out of 10
