We had a great stay as a young family. Rooms were clean and bedding lovely. Just across the road from the shops including supermarket, takeaway and two restaurants (book early!). The kids loved the playground and pool. Thanks so much Carole!

Carole and Simon were so friendly and accommodating! We are truley appreciative of the extra mile they were willing to for me. Lived the spa, pool was awesome, just wish didnt get sick so could have really enjoyed everything! Grounds are stunning, and being able to have my fluffbabies with me during such an intensly serious time really made the difference. Thankyou so much for having us 💜

Disliked: Staff & service

Ok but needs modernising

Location of the motel is very good. The site is large and has some scenic views from the grassed communal area but not from the cabins. The cabins are very dated, they need new kitchens, modern furniture and a lick of paint. The beds were very comfortable and shower has good water pressure, the cabins had been cleaned well. On reflection its very expensive for what you get in reality. The spa pool and the swimming pool were dirty so we did not use them.

The room and surroundings were very clean and tidy. Staff were very polite and the owners were very accommodating with our last-minute request to have our small elderly dog stay with us. All in all, it is a great place to stay and there are so many facilities i.e. Pool spa tennis court barbecue.
