Liked: Cleanliness of the site throughout was impeccable. Activities such as the leisure pass and parks throughout the resort were excellent. Staff were always friendly. The grounds were well kept allowing space for walks, picnics and places to relax.
Disliked: Although the resort is dog friendly and advertises this, we were surprised to find that dogs were not allowed in the bar, restaurant or entertainment area which restricted our evenings to our accommodation.
