Great property, had a duplex which was nice. I wouldn’t recommend the room for anyone who doesn’t link short steep steps. Room was great, loads of space, everything you needed to cater for yourself, and just chill out after a day or night out. Great staff in reception, and some decent cocktails behind the bar.

Great location, venue and facilities. Staff were superb. Felt like kitchen area was a little dark but as we only stayed for one night it wasn’t an issue so didn’t follow it up.
