Loved by Rocksalt Rooms guests
"Loved the room - brick walls, cool and comfy bed, great shower, and the harbour/sea view (from Valentine) was the icing on the cake."
"My very well traveled Husband, who incidentally doesn't give out rave reviews often, lent over at breakfast to exclaim that his breakfast was leaps and bounds better than the Oxford Randolf."
"Wonderful room, fantastic food, lovely staff all in a great location overlooking the sea."
4-star coastal retreat with panoramic sea views

The breakfast included local ingredients. The coffee tasted great. The room had shutters, offering flexible light control. The hotel provided Brambley products. The hand soap and shower items smelled fresh.

The room seemed like an afterthought. breakfast felt rushed with the limited time. there was also a lack of storage. Only four coat hangers served as a wardrobe. i had nowhere to put my toiletries in the bathroom and the milk went bad without a fridge. the overall service disappointed me
