Really good Stay with Wonderful Amenities

tasty optionshelpful stafflovely viewdog friendly

The breakfast had plenty of tasty options. Staff were both polite and helpful. I found the location provided lovely sea views. I appreciated that the room was dog friendly, and they even gave him a sausage at breakfast.

The shower fittings were somewhat antiquated, so controlling the water temperature was tricky. I found it went from scalding hot to freezing cold quickly.

Dining

9/10

The breakfast room is a lovely space. Breakfast offered a great choice of fresh food. I had poached eggs that were cooked perfectly. Sausages and bacon were also locally sourced.

Location

10/10

The hotel features a front garden well maintained. The hotel is a short walk to the beach. The hotel is also not too far from the centre. I enjoyed being close to everything.

Rooms
