The breakfast has a big selection and lovely dining area, food itself was great. Located really close to the beach and shops, places to eat etc... More

We stayed there for the Easter weekend, 3 nights with friends who also booked a double room. On arrival the welcoming from the owner (Susan)was so friendly and helpful, giving us lots of information about the area. There isn't anything we could moan about but the carpet when we first arrived gives you the wrong impression of the hotel, as... More

We Stayed here for 2 nights. Rooms were very clean, well equipped and comfortable. The breakfast was of very good quality and the staff were very pleasant, polite and accommodating. The markets with many good restaurants was an easy 10 minute walk from the Hotel. Overall had a very good experience and would definitely stay again. Highly recommended..

We stayed here for 2 nights at the beginning of October, along with our 4 year old daughter. The while place was spotless (and I am very fussy). The family room was large with a separate room for my daughter, who had her own TV, so she was incredibly happy. The breakfast was excellent, I can't say more. All the... More

Stayed here for two nights. The hotel is set in a nice peaceful area. We found it an easy walk to the beach and also the town and old town, with their respective eateries. Rooms in the hotel were adequate and thoughtfully equipped. A comfortable and roomy bed. Ample provision for tea and coffee making, complimented by a fridge. En-suite... More

A very pleasant guest house with a warm and friendly staff. The breakfasts were excellent, and the rooms (although not large) were clean with good provisions for making your own drinks. The bed was most comfortable. Although a little way from the sea, the location provided easy access to the main road along the east side of the island. I... More
