We liked:
Great place to stay - peaceful, picturesque and would go back again. Wonderful friendly and helpful staff, food in the restaurant is excellent as was the take away food in terms of good quality and value. The pool was good too and needed given the extremely hot weather as was the lake that you can walk around, canoe on or fish in.
We did not like:
Only minor niggle is the footpath up to the pool after the foot wash - you can easily burn your bare feet in paving’s in hot weather following the rules ie no shoes allowed on pool area. We took our shoes through and used them as did most fellow guests.

We liked:
Lovely view across the lake. The owners and the workers are all very pleasant.and accommodating.
Stayed for 5 nights and found it a very relaxing stay. The pool is lovely with a nice view. The water slide was great fun.
Had two meals in the restaurant and must say the Chef really knows what he's doing using fresh produce,full marks to him and the team.
Would definitely return if in the area.
Merci Beaucoup
We did not like:
Not a lot, but maybe the crazy paving going up to the pool could do with a make over sometime,.us old cogers found it a bit hazardous.
