10/10 Exceptional

Although the property is a bit dated it was well maintained. The bed was huge and really comfortable and I appreciated being able to have a bath with large soft luxurious fluffy white towels. The staff I encountered were friendly and there was a great choice at breakfast. Downsides were the shower was a bit weak and the WiFi only worked about 50% of the time.
