Overall, we were satisfied with the hotel. The English breakfast was very tasty — especially considering that I am a chef working in a five-star hotel in London. The sausages and bacon were exceptionally good.
I was slightly disappointed that still water was not available and only sparkling water was offered.
Overall, the hotel offers good value for money and we enjoyed our stay.

Had a lovely stay here for our anniversary. Check in was smooth and friendly. Staff were always lovely. Upon arriving in our room the look and quality were great for the price we paid. They had even left us a personalised card. Can't recommend enough.
Its really amazing - don't be hesitant book - its far better than any chain hotel. its amazing value for money, great facilities and wondefrul location. A really great hotel.
It's a rare joy to find a hotel with in room controlled aircon. I'd rebook just for that! The hotel is a grand old place and parking is a nightmare. But it's well situated with a sea walk just yards from your door and a surprisingly quiet location close to town.
Perfect for are little family getaway for couple of nights the room fit a family of 5 without having to pay for anther room. 5 min walk from beach lovely coastal views and walking area. Places to eat near by and local shops. Breakfast dinner snack options on the property.
