Visited here for a recent business lunch meeting on recommendation, and it did not disappoint. We did not wait long for a table, and the service was quick. We did not wait long for our drinks and meals. I went for the club sandwich. This was excellent, very tasty, and an absolute large plateful.O was informed that the rest of the hotel facilities were good and going by the good service from staff and the good quality food, I'm sure I'd agree.There is a car park on site also. Location is good with easy access to and from the motorway.I will go back and sample more of the menue. The dining room was lovely, crisp and clean decoration.

We had a family surprise party here and the whole experience was wonderful, from start to finish. The staff are lovely and really care about your experience. The buffet was generous and good quality, the DJ was really helpful, and our overnight stay was great, particularly the breakfast. Thanks to all the amazing staff for their commitment and hard work.
