    The breakfast I had was delicious with local foods and nice products and hot meals cooked to order. The hotel's location was central, right on the shoreline. Moreover, it's next to lake as well as the restaurant. Nothing too much trouble, the venue met the purpose.

    The food was very good, room was also good, sTAFF were very HeLPFUL and friendly.

    Sreeaming children in the restaurant in the evening, there was a great clash between the ambience of the restaurant with excellent food and very good service and good decor and lighting and these screaming children, with buggies being pushed through. Ask children under 5 to eat between 6.30 and 7.15pm and ban buggies. Music left on overnight in bar area.

    We stayed at the Waterhead to celebrate our Golden wedding anniversary. It was our first return visit ad we were impressed with everything about the hotel. The rooms were amazing, and we were well looked after by all the staff. We could only stay for one night, but it was an experience not to be forgotten.

    As above.

    Nothing to complain about.

    Arrived here and was blown away by how lovely and special this place is! It's right in the center, super close to the lake, and set in a charming location. Ate at the restaurant one night and it was amazing! Our room had the most incredible views of the lake 🌅.
