Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The pull out bed/couch is broken.
Stench of septic is very unpleasant.
A small friendly motel, comfy beds and clean
Very wet outside for our stay. Given the muddy surrounds, an internal mat/ rack for mucky shoes would be good.
Nice quiet location. Value for money. Easy check in and parking at our door. Nice outdoor seating outside room.
A tad dated in decor but clean, fresh and well equipped room. One minute walk to bistro, bar and gaming room
Staff are just delightful over the entire venue. Thanks so much and we’ll definitely be back.
A real little gem. Rooms are basic but have everything you need for a short stay, spotlessly clean & cosy. The bistro is a great thing to have in such a small country staff & all the staff we interacted with at the bar & in the bistro were just fantastic. Great experience & would definitely stay again if in the area 👍
We booked a 3 bedroom unit. It was perfect for my 2 sisters and my husband and myself for the specific occasion we were to hold. The rooms were lovely and very comfortable. The staff at the hotel were amazingly kind and helpful.
