Quality time
I took my daughter for a night away for a birthday treat and we both had a wonderful time. The staff were very welcoming and helpful as we hadn't stayed before. The room was spacious and the bed was so comfy - as someone who generally struggles to sleep away from home, I had a great night's sleep. The use of the pool was the highlight for my 7yo daughter - lovely pool and the staff were very kind. Breakfast in the morning was delicious, so many choices to suit everyone. Would definitely stay again ♡
