“Amazing hotel and as for the room.. well, you just need to go and stay there 😊 Superb extra little things like having own coffee machine & fridge, dressingowns & slippers and could request breakfast in the room at no extra cost ! Breakfast had an enormous dejection with something to suit everyone’s preferences... We had breakfast but sadly we had to rush off ... next visit we will ensure we get to savour everything”
