The lovely, friendly, man at the desk was very welcoming, and offered great advice on what was in the area to visit, etc, i.e. attractions and eateries.
For our one night stay, the unit was very clean, tidy, comfortable, and offered everything we needed.
We will be back again and would love to stay longer. Thank you xxx
