I stayed here for 4 days and really enjoyed my stay. The room was reasonably sized and we were lucky enough to have an very nice en suite.

The food was much better than expected and I was pleasantly surprised at the range of dishes as both breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with both vegetarian and halal options. The staff also provided lots of information into what allergens each dish might contain. At breakfast there was a full English breakfast available, with a veggie option, a wide selection of cereals and yougurts and toast. Lunch consisted to two rolls of your choice, ranging from turkey, to beef, to jam and sausage, to name a few. You also received multiple 'extras', such as fruit, crisps and cereal bars. At dinner, there was often 3 or even 4 options to choose from, which was great, and a wide choice of salads.

The shop/bar was slightly expensive but the 'bartender' was very nice. There was also lots of other leisure activities available in the evenings, such as table tennis, giant Jenga, pool and table football.

The staff were extremely friendly and everyone really liked them. Overall, I would definitely recommend it.
