Looking for a hotel with pools?

‘Does it have a pool?’ is arguably one of the most common questions when booking a stay in any location. These hotels offer a great way to keep active during your holiday without having to hit the gym. Indoor pools allow you to practice your backstroke come rain or shine, whereas outdoor options allow you to relax on a sun lounger after swimming a few lengths.

I absolutely love the mini self kitchen they provided, electric kettle and a microwave which most properties don't have. We were able to have an indoor picnic with the space provided in the room, what a lovely birthday gift. The swimming pool with an added bonus.
