I booked two family rooms for 1 night and was pleasantly surprised at how big and modern the rooms were. A king size bed in bedroom and bunk beds in separate space meant a.comfortable night for our family. The hotel car parks were full but we easily parked in the pay and display outside hotel. Breakfast was lovely, a good selection of hot and cold food. I would definitely would recommend this hotel.
