excellent. note we had breakfast included, and a higher level room with balcoany for this review. Very good presentation of property. Often at 40yrs they are let go and are a shadow of former glory, but not here. Pool was great. Dinner very good. Breakfast good (although coffee a big let-down). The bathroom and room great. Games provided. Also note when we were there, it was quite under-populated by travellers, and tariff was relatively low. I imagine the pool could be awful in school holidays etc, full of 'orrible children, so bear that in mind, but all in all, a grteat experience for price. I would def return (but maybe only in off-season times)
