THE LOOK AND FEEL

The rather bland 1970s exterior is overshadowed by the warm blues, greys and fire on display in the lively, buzzy lounge. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of the river. Bedrooms feature blues, neutrals and water-inspired pictures. Artwork of ducklings features in the corridors and there's a cute display of toy ducks in reception.

THE FACILITIES

Staff are friendly, enthusiastic and helpful. Sporty guests can enjoy the tennis courts, pools and large gym. A playground and playroom with PS4 console and Xbox will amuse kids. Three self-drive hire boats are great for pootling about, and an outdoor cinema, outdoor pool and hot tub are perfect for lazy summer days.
