Stayed here for 6 nights with Ellen Smith Coach Tours. Check in was quick, easy and informative. Room was of a reasonable size on the first floor overlooking the outdoor pool. the bathroom was a little small and we found the WC very low it was like. a junior school toilet. Plenty of storage space, a good size TV, tea and coffee facilities. You had to book your evening meal time either in the morning at breakfast or you could do this for all week if you wished. Food in the restaurant was of good quality and always hot and well served: Breakfast was the usual, cereals, juices, yoghurts, fresh fruit, cold meats, croissants. toast. The hot plate consisted of bacon, sausage, tomatoes, mushrooms, scramled egg and hash browns you could order eggs to be cooked for you from the kitchen and there was smoked salmon, tea & coffees was brought to your table, only complaint was the menu didn't change (fried bread would have been a nice alternative to the hash browns). Evening Meal: There was a table d h'ote menu which changed each evening the choice was varied and the quality of the dishes were excellent all served at the table. Bar: Prices were reasonable for a hotel the only complaint was there isn't enough seating as if the restaurant is busy they use tables in the bar. Lounge: very small one with three small settees. One of the other rooms which are obviously used for functions should be converted into a larger lounge area. It's nice to have somewhere quiet to sit if you don't want to sit in the bar. Spa area is clean and pleasant to use, NB you will need a £1 coin for the lockers. The staff are excellent can't do enough for you and absolutely are what makes this hotel tick. Location: Its about a 15 minute walk through the park to the town centre, local buses are available outside the hotel. All in all we would definitely recommend this hotel.
