Overall the hotel was really nice and well kept. Room was spacious, ‘cosy’ and well made up. Bathroom a little mouldy but nothing too bad. Panto was brilliant both for both kids and adults. Plenty things to do to keep children occupied, and the animal man on Xmas eve was great. Kids disco at night too. Sadly our schedule didn’t allow us to catch any time in the cinema but there was around 3 movies a day being played! Kids pool is heated which was nice, Lao had an inflatable slide which came out at certain times which the kids loved. Reception and central areas were very festive and had a nice vibe. Saxo player, free mulled wine and mince pies too! Santa also doing the rounds in the reception so nice for the kids that didn’t get an official grotto visit. The two elves at the grotto were really good, extra shoutout to them as they dealt with a couple of kids that had disabilities/learning difficulties in the grotto group particularly well. All the hotel staff were very nice and attentive. Good spread at breakfast, however no pancakes or waffles like advertised on the online menu.
