Good

Access in and around the building: Getting around the building was good as there are bright wide corridors. The restaurant and bar were well laid out with good contrasting colours. Lifts were large and also went down to the swimming pool, gym and car park levels. Access in the accessible bedrooms and bathrooms: The accessible rooms were bright and spacious. Fitted with alarm cords and deaf alter pillow alarms. Access in the dining area: The dining area is large but there is a logical route in and staff will help you find a table. Access to other facilities: The reception was to the left as I went in. The desk is equipped with a hearing loop.

There was an accessible toilet by the gym and another in the changing rooms area. Both were large and well lit. You do have to go downstairs from the main areas to get to these.
