Lovely rooms, good service but limited breakfast options
Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021

8/10

The venue is lovely and the staff are very friendly, however service levels need to be looked at. We waited for service at Breakfast for 15 minutes before offered coffee, and again, the staff were very friendly, but I think lacked the support from Management to provide training. We arrived in really bad weather, which was the reason they gave for having no wifi at all. When you work on the road, this is not ideal, routers / boosters need to be put into the hotel rooms, as the connection from reception to the rooms is obviously not strong enough. We ordered room service for dinner and the food was delicious

This is a new hotel so the facilities are in great condition. The room was huge, with an additional outdoor shower and a great view. Dinner (steak) was outstanding. Only thing to watch out for is the road getting to the hotel. Watch out for the potholes and stray animals.
