lovely stay near the lake

great locationdelicious lamb chopsprofessional staff
the location suited me perfectly. it was near the lake and also near the rail station. the restaurant was seriously good, i ordered the lamb chops, they were cooked to perfection. the staff were very smart and professional, always ready to assist..
they felt a little cramped, especially when more than two people were using them. it just felt a bit tight for a hotel of this standard.
