Arrived @ 9.15 am to a very warm

Arrived @ 9.15 am to a very warm welcome from Martyn on reception who couldn't have been more helpful. Our room was ready, which we didn't expect, & we were surprised at how big & spacious it was. After freshening up we again spoke at length with Martyn re trips we were interested in. Again, nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely stay here again, as it suited our needs very well.

Maintenance on the air conditioning

Maintenance on the air conditioning unit needs reviewing. Whilst I considered the overall accommodation experience as average I would stay there again.
