    The Standard Twin Room with Garden View offered a charming outlook, with plenty of natural light streaming through the windows. The peaceful ambiance made it easy to unwind after a long day of exploring nearby areas.

    The decor felt a bit cluttered, with an overwhelming number of knickknacks and plants that seemed stuck in the 1980s, which might not suit everyone's taste. The dining experience in the bar area left something to be desired. it was quite cramped with limited food options, which didn't live up to the price tag, and the absence of a proper draft lager was disappointing. While the outside looked nice, the interior had some dated aspects that might need a refresh to enhance the overall appeal.

    The sea view from our room was breathtaking, making our stay truly enjoyable. We appreciated the delicious, locally sourced meals and the welcoming atmosphere of the place.

    stunning views
    tranquil ambiance
    excessive charges
    outdated style
    limited amenities

    The location was breathtaking, with stunning views of the shore that shifted with the tide. The ambiance exuded tranquility, allowing for leisurely conversations with fellow guests, which added to the charm. the extra charges for coffee at breakfast felt excessive, and while the room was comfortable, it lacked some modern amenities. Dining was a highlight, especially the eggs Benedict, making meals enjoyable despite the setting being a bit dated.

    tasty food
    comfortable room
    quiet dining room

    We loved our stay, especially the perfectly cooked angel head haddock and the comfy room with big fluffy towels. The sauna and garden area were perfect for relaxation. Just a heads up, the dining room felt a bit quiet at times. maybe some soft music would be nice to liven it up a little. 😊

    Couples seeking a retreat

    I remember having breakfast on the terrace with the most fine view of the beach right in front of us which felt surreal and also the staff were friendly making sure we had everything we needed during our stay

    It wasn't exactly inexpensive but given the experience it felt justified

    Breathtaking views and delightful dining experience

    I spent three nights in a Superior Double Room with Sea View, where the surroundings were stunning, offering breathtaking views of the bay. The staff were incredibly welcoming, and all meals were made fresh using local ingredients. It was a tranquil retreat, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the beautiful coastal walks nearby. One area for improvement could be the menu options as there weren't many vegetarian choices available.

    Cozy vibes and stunning views!

    We had an amazing time during our stay! The location was jaw-dropping, right by the sea. Diana made us feel right at home and even cooked meals just for me due to my diet, which was awesome. The restaurant food was fresh and tasted great. Just wish the dining prices were clearer upfront.

    stunning location
    local ingredients
    steep prices
    inconsistent service

    The hotel location is truly stunning, and the meals highlight local ingredients, although the dining prices felt a bit steep for what was offered. While the staff was mostly friendly, there were moments of inconsistency in service that diminished the experience. a lovely getaway despite these minor hiccups.
