A larger TV and a coffee table for tea/coffee would be something to consider. Just suggestions as it was excellent and we would definitely stay again. Lovely large rooms, very comfy bed, clean, etc.

Loved Our Stay Here!
Great room and very clean. Bed very comfortable. Bathroom a bit dated, but everything in it worked well. Loved the kitchen with a good sized fridge. Servicing of room was excellent. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The property area is quiet and overlooks a golf course. We will definitely stay here again and recommend to other travelers.
