The Lobster

We were upgraded to a family room which was spacious and well equipped. Very close to seafront.

Parking was a bit tricky but to be expected with the central location.

Location is great really near the beach, Breakfast Monday & Tuesday exceptional Weds & Thurs still very good but we could tell there was a chef change, plenty of areas to sit to eat.

Room had no air as only 1 window could be opened so this needs to be addressed , fan supplied but needs more air flow, not sure how the room works with health & safety as secondry fire exit had been blocked up and all windows bar 1 blocked or locked .

Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly.

Location was good

There was only a tiny bedroom window.

Great location. Comfortable room. Even quitet once pub had shut ( wasn't late or a problem)

Room was a little hot but fan helped. They cant control the weather

Great location with onsite parking and the rooms had all mod cons you could wish for.

Kitchen close time meant we were forced to book at another restaurant.

The staff were lovely. The room was comfy, but snug. Facilities were fine. Breakfast was really good.

No parking but we knew that and we worked around it, as we know the area really well.

Connor who checked us in was helpful and efficient. Close to the seafront.

This pub/hotel is in really bad state of repair! It dues t look like there is any maintenance or cleaning program since the refurbishments were boasted in February 2024. Our greeting on arrival was unpleasant by a female member of the team. She appeared harassed and when we encountered her again that day in the bar we both thought her manner was rude. So much so that we decided not to keep our dinner reservation and ate else that evening. Our bedroom, Room 1 was best described as “grim”. The divan bed creaked every time we moved it was apparent the next morning that a bracket was not attached to keep the two halves of the bed together. The bedding felt worn and the pillows and duvet were uncomfortable. The lighting was poor. The fan was broken which meant that the air pointed downwards only. The lidded bin in the bathroom was rusty. The shower enclosure was mouldy. The grout in the shower was stained and needed a proper cleaning. The bedroom window was absolutely filthy; the woodwork, the glass, black grime! The bar staff seemed too busy and everything in the bar, toilets, staircase to the rooms felt sticky and rather dirty. Outside - the patio areas are full of weeds. The planters have dead plants. The bench tables have visible rotting wood and the building has flaking paintwork everywhere.
