★ 4 · Solid weekend break
Good balance of activity and downtime. Rooms were basic but clean. The bonfire night was the highlight — everyone actually talked instead of staring at phones.
★ 4 · Good value, slightly large group
Twenty-eight people is a lot for a small hill station. Everything ran on time and the stay was comfortable, but I'd pick a smaller departure next time.
