It was a great stay. We got an upgrade for the room and were very comfortable.
We had 2 children with us and they loved it. They thought it was a castle.
The staff were very accommodating

Had a good night's sleep and breakfast before continuing on our journey. Note that the hotel is a little tricky to find as it's off the main road, so use your Google or other navigator.
