Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The hotel it’s self was pleasant and the staff on arrival were lovely the only thing that ruined our weekend away was the area around it and how our van was broken in to at night no sever damage was done but a few personal items were taken! The hotel do have security cameras in the surrounding car park but to get the evidence they said it would take them a couple of hours to recover this! The police are informed of the incident and the hotel did say they would contact me but I’ve heard nothing since regarding this incident.
