Got here early as expecting it to be busy, glad we did as got first pick of sunbeds, think the owner is Simon, lovely guy, great customer service, explained he had a bit off staffing problems as his bar staff were off so he done everything else, said he may be a few extra minutes, wasn't a problem for us, wasn't that long with things anyway, young lady serving called nayla, sorry if I spelt it wrong, is a credit to your business, above and beyond making people feel at home and always walking around seeing if you needed anything, and always with a smile, same as the older lady and the gardener for all pitching in, kids loved seeing the birds, fish, ducks, chickens, terepins and tortoises we used the park, kids loved, bit warm for crazy golf, will next time, definitely will be back thanks for making our day a very enjoyable 1, sorry nearly forgot about the pool, its very very deep at the deep end haha, think it was like 12ft or something, highly...
