Ground floor room

Heating had to be sorted and for the money breakfast could be available even if it was a Continental selection in the room

"Super stay"

10.0

Great location, 15 min walk along sea front into town. Room was big and comfortable, everything was clean and homely. We paid about £10 extra I think for a sea view room - we had a little balcony which I enjoyed a cuppa on each morning, even if it was freezing outside! Hosts were good - didn’t see them as it’s more of a “self-service” type accommodation, but they were super via text and sorted an extra parking pass for us no problem.

"A beautiful suite with a great location!"

10.0

It was an elegant suite that was extraordinary clean. The small sea view was the icing on the cake! The location was great for walking to the sea or shops.

It’s hard to find anything wrong with the place. Maybe the shower is a little unusual as the turn on button is outside the bathroom.

"Lovely place, will definitely book to stay again"

10.0

Room was very clean and tidy, and well equipped. Ours was a very late booking as we were let down by another accommodation provider and had to find something quickly. However, they handled our booking very well and we were glad to find such lovely accommodation.

The location was a little out of the way but that also meant it was nice and quiet.

Beautiful room, just been charged £75 for damages?.And also accused of being a cannabis user by the owner.I did get a little hair dye on the wall by the sink,but the pictures I have seen do not Equate to £75 worth of damage and then the accusation of the room being unfit for the next couple is ridiculous

Great location, comfy bed, clean, lovely view

Towels were slightly damp on arrival and although we put them on the towel rail to dry, minimal heating was put on, I did send a message to the host and it came on briefly, majority of the time it was chilly and unable to dry towels.
