"The Loft, fab place"

10.0

The Loft is a fabulous place to stay. The room we had was spacious, very clean, well equipped and a fantastic decked area to watch the wonderful sunset. The staff were all lovely and very attentive, offering complimentary beers and water every day. Local bars and restaurants were all nearby with a variety of cuisine, suitable for all. It was a great location too for all nearby attractions. Elephant sanctuary, Monkey world and Birds of Eden
