"The view from our sea view room took my breath away, taking in the morning sunrise and falling to sleep to the sound of the waves."
"We were delighted to find it actually had a separate adjoining room for the children as well as a large bedroom with seating area for the adults."
"We booked the large sea view double rooms , these are located on the 1st & 2nd with a full frontal view of the sea ."
