    Some of the surrounding areas are in a very poor state, almost dangerous, with furniture abandoned and broken glass, my dog couldn’t be walked as the surrounding area was not safe, it was a terrible shame as we love the facilities the accommodation is fine and the kids entertain is brilliant but then you have this derelict apartments that undermine the potential of being a wonderful family holiday retreat

    Would have liked a former mattress.

    The location was great for me as I was visiting family. I liked how quiet it was.

    The cutlery in the kitchen was poor quality and unmatching and most of the crockery and cutlery needed to be washed prior to use When I came to pick up the keys from the bar my booking had been missed. The bar staff had to reopen reception to investigate the issue which they did happily and successfully but it did take a long while to pick up my keys The website needs updating. It showed the Monkey Puzzle restaurant to be closed on a day I hoped to have breakfast there but I discovered it was open when it was too late to make use of it wuich was a shame.

    Lovely view and clean comfortable bed and bathroom Staff were really friendly and helpful Plenty of flexible parking

    Paid for early check in for the room not to be ready, provided a food voucher as compensation only to be told what we could use that on was limited. Swimming pool was good but changing facilities limited and showers very hot and didn't work very well.

    Swimming pool, soft play, pool tables and table tennis

    A bit noisy with water tanks filling and can hear people in nextdoor talking, so sound proofing could help.

    The apartment we had looks like it had been newly renovated and was clean with plenty of towels, a kettle and tea/coffee sachets. A little cooler fridge which was handy. We only stayed one night as a journey break. Walls a bit thin and water tank noise till late. Did go quiet after midnight. When the whole of the repairs and renovating are complete, which I could see has started. It would be a nice place to stay.

    It took a long time to get served in the bar for food and drinks. The apartment needed some refurbishment as it was a bit worn. Kitchen lacked a chopping board and tin opener didn't work. The flat above had a leak which dropped through our ceiling onto the table.maintenence came out and it eventually stopped.

    The rooms were comfortable, facilities were good, the family enjoyed the children's entertainment and live music was good. The food was good and reasonably priced. The pool was warm, enjoyed the sauna. The staff were friendly.

    Room wasn't ready in time,wouldn't mind but this is the second time in As many weeks and it's frustrating especially when you have kids that are tired. Front door wouldn't lock from the outside and the shower leaked all over the bathroom floor,to say we paid for a superior I would have expected better.

    Love staying here, kids love it as there is loads for them to do. Great food,lovely views,beds were amazing. Used the pool for the first time and it was great.

    The place is in need of some TLC. Light pull cord for our bathroom had snapped off 10inch from the ceiling, guttering missing in places, facia panel snapped off in places, areas need painting, fake grass needs reattaching, areas need weeding, crazy golf unusable etc etc

    A good base for travelling around

    TV was almost behind sofa. Info about facilities was very poor. No info in room, just a QR code which lead to page saying that there was faculties, but didn't provide opening times and other info.

    I liked that there was a "beach library". We borrowed a bucked and spade for a day at the beach. The pool was nice, changing rooms could have been nicer (no cubicles).
