Hello The room was spacious and comfortable. My wife particularly appreciated the glutten free selection available at breakfast. The hotel was well cited for exploring the local attractions. The room was not visited by the cleaners on one morning so we had to take some time out to get the waste bin emptied and replacement tea and milk. Overall thou' a pleasant stay
