I booked this for our family for a surprise for my husbands 60th.
We had a long weekend and it was close by for us but what an amazing place. Thoroughly enjoyed by all we had a great time and would certainly go back - also had a private chef for one day which finished the weekend off
This property is a once in a lifetime experience. The facilities are amazing and the Cinema incredible. Very clean and a very thing you need to cater for 18 people!
