Loved this park, we visited in non school holidays and it was quiet amd relaxed, we can see that kids would love it and imagine the park gets packed during school holidays. Id stay here for sure again.the apartment was spacious and comfortable with gorgeous views of the river. The only improvemrnt point internet connection was poor and frequently unavailable.

The property and the staff were great However, the cafe is expensive Three people in front of us and we had to wait one hour to get our food Could not get poached eggs because they could not cook them did not know how And it was run by young people, which is not their fault. They are there to learn. Maybe they should put someone experienced on with them to cook.
