Reviews
"We enjoyed our holiday and the rooms were fabulous - as you had said. It was also great that the hotel was so close to the airport, so no long car journey. We had a couple of problems with our pram and the maintenance guys were fantastic and didn't keep us waiting. Our room really was spot on - ground floor which was great with the kids and just a walk across the grass to the pool. "
