"Very helpful & welcoming. Highly recommend."

9.0

The breakfast was wonderful. Great berries, yoghurt & cereal choices and the smoked salmon & scrambled eggs were amazing. There is no parking but we were able to pull up to load/unload, easier because it was out of season I imagine. Room 12 on 2nd floor has a Superking bed, very comfortable. Excellent walk-in shower in that room too. The sea view is to die for of course!

Upper floors are accessed by stairs so be prepared for that.

"2 day break in a welcoming warm and lovely hotel"

9.0

Excellent breakfast choices. Good local produce and credit to the chef for his perfect poached eggs Excellent location and fantastic sea views from the bedroom Staff extremely friendly pre booking and during stay I stayed in the Compact 1st floor room which had king size bed and was ideal for my stay warm clean and welcoming

Cost per night is high but hotels are also paying higher costs due to cost of living therefore this impacts on the price per night But not a criticism
