  “Highly Recommend” Reviewed 13th July 2021 This was my 1st time to do anything alone and it turned out to be the best impulse decision I ever made!

The fully tiled bathroom felt very luxurious with a large shower and heated towel rail! The food was delicious, and plentiful. Really impressed with so many new flavours and all vegetarian, my body was flooded with goodness all week.
