Great hotel in good location. pet friendly.
The hotel staff were kind and helpful. We paid extra to bring our dog. The dog was allowed in the bar area which was good as it meant we could have a drink as dog could not be left on her own in room. There was lots of parking including electric chargers. The parking was £10 for 24 hours. All in all a good stay and would recommend the hotel.

The hotel was nice , communal changing area for the gym and pool could have been cleaner, shower cream dispenser didn’t pump . The towel rail in the bedroom was unplugged so we had fresh towels everyday which wouldn’t have been necessary if the towel rail worked because I didn’t want to use a damp towel. Bed was comfy, room quiet, staff friendly. Would stay here again
