Really good Stay with Fantastic Sea Views

sea viewcomfortable bedclean towelsroad noise
The King Room Sea View, I had, offered great views from the windows. The room was also huge. The bathroom included a big bath and shower. It was very comfortable and always had clean towels. There were also plenty of tea and coffee supplies.
The smaller window had a handle. It clashed with the wall, preventing a full close. The road noise was noticeable as a result.

The hotel is well situated. It sits near the seafront, pubs, and restaurants. A comfy little lounge and a bar are on site. Helpful and friendly managers are always available!

lovely seaside stay

friendly staffexcellent locationsuper clean roomon-site parking
i found the staff very friendly and helpful, especially with local recommendations. the location was excellent, it made exploring very easy. my room was super clean, and the cleaning service kept it that way throughout my stay..
the lack of on-site parking created some stress since i needed to find street parking each evening.

though the hotel does not serve meals currently, there are several restaurants and pubs within a short walk. many nearby establishments are dog-friendly and offer a variety of cuisines, a plus for pet owners.
