The accommodation boasts an excellent breakfast with high-quality food but smaller portions. Guests appreciate the convenient location near the lake, woodlands, and highways, along with ample parking and a beautiful view.

Hotel is quite dated but good for night’s stay. Lake and surroundings are very lovely (didn’t get the time to look around properly). Bed is comfortable and staff are professional. In terms of amenities, there isn’t really any. I did see they had spa facilities? But can’t comment on that. Overall average.

Great location, lovely walk around the lake and nearby woodlands. Staff are friendly and service is good. Rooms are outdated and could do with a lot of modernisation, unfortunately, is not even on par with some travelodges. Walls are hollow so can hear noise and voices from neighbouring rooms. Rooms are not sparkling clean, you will get what is expected of a 3 star hotel. Breakfast is just ok. Overall, if you’re looking for a stopover for the night and want to wake up to beautiful views then definitely book a room with a view and not the standard room which may end up overlooking the A2. We did however, book a lakeside room that was allocated on the second floor and the view was very nice indeed.

Good hotel for the piece. Could be cleaner and service from staff could be better. Cannot complain for the price though. Also had a nice lakeside view. Would stay again :)

We are staying here this weekend for our anniversary. Have a king size Lakeview room which although is a little dated is clean and very big. The food so far whether it be breakfast or dinner has been fine so far and all staff have been helpful. A pleasant surprise from all the negative reviews.

Where do I start? Probably decorated last in the 1970s, corridor carpets threadbaer in places and look filthy. Bar closes at 9.30!!! This is supposed to be a hotel! No pizza available on Monday but when we did have one on Wednesday it was good. The rest of the food was decidely average and the 2 blondes ladies working the bar and waitressing need to cherr up a LOT. The breakfast was so poor that we only went onece. The coffee was at one end of a room and the cereals etc at the other, so if one went to get a coffee to take to ones table there were no cups as they were on the table. Had to walk back to the table to retieve a cup - so much easier if the wiater had served it at the table. The plates for the toast were much smaller than one slice of toast so buttering it became a challenge, expecially if one had two pieces.Vegan offerings were small and poor quality. Carpet in the bedroom was rucked up in places and well worn. Reading light above the bed was almost falling off and as for the TV one needed binoculars to watch it as it was smaller than a small T towel. Dogs everywhere...including one who deposited his pooh outside our bedroom door!! All in all poor and we will not be returning.

We travelled from Scotland for my birthday. We had an email saying that an event was on and we wouldn’t get food from the bar. Friday night we were kept awake till 2am. Saturday event started at 10.30. 90 decibels pound through our room. Our neighbours decided to fight till 5am. We complained but were told it wasn’t dealt with on site. Sunday we had to change rooms(after I put my foot down) after neighbours fell asleep with tv on full blast. We complained via email to be told they have no control over room occupants!! We used to love coming here but never again. Awful service if your break goes wrong.

Young but friendly and helpful staff, the food is traditional pub food and very nice for what it is. The beer was spot on and I’d know having spent 30yrs in the trade. Our room was spacious on the second floor overlooking the lake. It is dated but clean and bright with everything you need in your room. For breakfast you get what is listed on the menu. I enjoyed my breakfast, it was perfectly cooked and delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and when we are back in the area will likely stay here again.
