The room was very clean although the radiator was on in the bathroom and had no way to turn it off. The bed was a bit stiff for our preferences. Overall, all of the staff were very friendly and relatable and knowledgeable of the local area. Breakfast was bloomin’ delicious! Excellent stay over all!

Everything was first rate, the staff were more than helpful the food was excellent and the room clean. The sea view would have been better without the fog, but you can’t blame the hotel for that! I will definitely be going back.
