    Comfortable room in a fantastic location

    The bed was really comfortable, we slept like logs. Clean modern bathroom with a bath as requested. A fantastic location right by the lake Staff were really friendly and helpful

    Parking was slightly difficult to find. The 5th car park we tried was the correct one!
