“A lovely hotel in an excellent location with great food and service.”
The location was excellent; you could walk out the front door of the hotel and you were on the promenade. All the staff were had contact with were very helpful. We enjoyed the breakfast a lot. We had an evening meal one night in the restaurant and that was excellent. Our room was comfortable with nice tea and coffee facilities.

“Fantastic stay, great walks and very enjoyable stay.”
We loved the room, good size and sea view, plenty of room for us and our dog. Breakfast was really good, well cooked and good choice. We didn’t eat in the evenings but we had Sunday lunch in the Seafood and Grill with a couple of friends and really enjoyed it. Robin who served us on Sunday and at Breakfast was excellent.
