Wow! Love this place! Mostly because the staff are fantastic! Lucky as they are far more helpful than the hotel staff! They go all the way to help as needed. Breakfast is really fresh and great variety. They cook eggs, porridge and vegetarian sausages to order. They have a pancake machine that my daughter loved! Most importantly they are eco minded and happy to do more when asked...they are making fresh smoothies for you to have and taking it table to table. I was offered but in a paper cup. Whilst paper is better than plastic, reusable is still better so I said, no. He then offered me it in a real glass. I accepted gratefully. It was delicious! More importantly, the next morning I came down and he came over with the smoothie in a glass without question! I was thrilled as I don't like the guilt I have to feel with unnecessary packaging. So I thank you for this! They also have jam and honey etc, all in dispensers, no plastic pots and not even those small jam jars so this is great! We didn't eat anything else as we were out but breakfast is a huge win! Staff amazing and kids eat free too so that helps as well! Thanks guys!

Our Team of 15 stayed at the Hotel for 7 nights. Anthony, Lit and the team served us delicious food, always with a smile and took care of the special requests. With a wave from across the restaurant, he came over to say Hello and asked what we’d been up to that day. He always had a compliment about our team, a great story and big laughs. Recommend 110%!

Amazing service from Anthony and Sultana lovely food also

Fantastic service from the manager. Travelling as a group of 18, it’s hard to find good locations with good food to accommodate a group of that size. Great atmosphere and good food.

I've never been here before. What a hidden gem. Staff were amazing, and the food was great. Can't wait to go again . Would highly recommend

Anthony, Lit and the team at this restaurant was absolutely awesome. Food and service was great.

Had our Christmas meal for lunch and it was very lovely. The staff was very attentive and the ambiance was very homey. The resto made extra effort to make the place look festive. The chef also went out to greet everyone dining in. Priced quite reasonable

Great food and service very happy to accommodate large group
