Great start to our holiday.

Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Close to the airport with a free regular shuttle bus. Just check your airport parking isn’t the other side of the terminal like mine was! We ate in the restaurant for our evening meal and were pleasantly surprised by how delicious the food was. Will definitely be returning- a wonderful start to the holiday.
