delicious food sea view

The food tasted delicious. The outside tables allowed us to enjoy the sun and the view of the sea.

The room was clean, but the carpet felt slightly worn. It wasn't the end of the world at all though..

adequate stay

great room amazing views helpful staff low standard no wardrobe heated towel rail

The hotel provided a great room with everything needed. The location offered amazing views. All the super nice team. They were also friendly. This hotel is wonderfully dog friendly.

I found the room was not quite up to the standard for what i paid. There was no wardrobe. The tea and coffee making area was perched on top of a low mini fridge. This resulted in backache. The heated towel rail in the bathroom wasn't on.

The room had a coffee machine. It was a nice touch. Breakfast included a self serve continental option. I found parking available right next to the hotel. The parking area can be full during peak season.

The menu had a great selection, but I wish they had more vegetarian options.
