Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: I loved the bedroom, the pool and the breakfast.

Negative: We ate in the bar as the restaurant was in use for the Christmas party night. The staff brought us a menu and then forgot to come back to take an order until I went over. The bar man was using a skip and was throwing bottles very loudly into this. A skip is ok when the bar is busy and no one can hear it over music playing etc but not when the bar is quiet and you are trying to eat.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay and would definitely be back.
