The staff were amazing. The property is run down most of the umbrellas have holes in them, and the deck chairs have been mended a lot but are still broken. I got locked in my room because I shut an interior door overnight not realising the lock on my side of the door did not work. I could not get out. I rang reception but it was not manned at the weekend. I then tried to ring the other number on the phone but that was also not picked up. I watched out the window, caught someone walking by attention, and asked them to find someone to let me out. I put something against the door so I did not accidentally shut it again and get locked in. This door was not fixed before I left. A man did try and fix it but the lock did not fit the door. The staff in the restaurant were amazing and professional. The food was great. It was just a shame about the property maintenance.

Convenient location. Excellent staff. Great food. Resort has great character but would benefit so much from upgrade in regard to an all-round clean & a fresh paint job.
