The bed and pillows were super comfy, wish we booked another night to enjoy it some more! The amount of 'freebies' were incredible compared to other places, and the local hand soap/lotion was a nice touch.

Location,food and staff all excellent. The room (17) was a bit clostraphobic as no proper windows to have any daylight, there was very little room up the sides of the bed it may have been better if it was just a single bed, it was also difficult...
