Stayed there Friday night - was attending a Party there. Lovely place - spotlessly clean/warm/inviting. Breakfast first class - and all for £70 (THAT WAS FOR THREE OF US) Well impressed and would certainly return. Breakfast was fab - whole works and beautifully cooked... Worth a visit if you're in the area. More

Not salubrious - but does the job - very friendly and helpful staff. Could do with a few easy chairs in the room to relax in rather than Hard "Hotel Dinner table chairs", but overall great value and breakfast good More

Basic Bar food in sterile bar, room clean and quiet, location and entrance rather awkward and odd, have a long long walk to town, and nothing else around it, but near beach, Just a place to sleep, nothing to keep you there More
