    The chalet was huge! And very comfortable. Bathrooms were lovely, clean, fresh towels - it really felt like a hotel experience! I will stay again at Midlands any day! Lovely pool, beautiful grounds and fun area for kids.

    Loved the fact that I arrived at 19:30 and was still greeted and treated friendly - exactly the kind of TLC I needed after a grueling "up" Comrades 2024. And the next morning the check-out was just at "painless"
