Liked The couple that checked us in were very polite and professional
Disliked No restaurant on site looks like there previously could have been but the roof was no longer on the building not sure how long it has been like that , tiny bar and cafe which wasnt open i assume because of the season. No shop just a shelf in the reception. No games room, The show has a tile fell off the road and resting on the shower cubicle was there all our stay. Showers and toilet very dated
