We enjoyed our stay, however we did expect the level of accommodation to be better. We felt the price of the break didn’t reflect the quality of the accommodation and the facilities. The accommodation felt tired, and in dire need of Some TLC. The marketing of the Xbox slightly misleading, as there was only one controller, the football table was held together with bandages. We’ve stayed in a lot of places around the U.K. and have stayed in better equipped and furnished places. We were made aware that the outdoor pool was being refurbished, which was fine, we didn’t know that we’d have the builders right outside our property early as 06:30.
