Leisure pool complex is a big hit!
How many budget hotels can boast their own on-site wave pool? Throw in the flume slide and fountain pool and you've effectively got a one-stop-shop for keeping kids of all ages well and truly happy. There's even a hot tub where fatigued parents can enjoy a bit of well deserved ‘me time'. Superb.
