    “Lovely spacious lakeside property with excellent maintenance team.”

    Lost the electricity but had 3 visits in 10 mins by very friendly staff and all sorted. Pool and bar food really good again with helpful and cheery staff. The only real area for improvement is the reeds need cutting back at the fishing/boat platform but I assume we are late in the season and this will be addressed over the winter period. Overall a fantastic place to stay.
