"The sea view from our room - we saw a beautiful sunrise one morning and a lovely pearly morning sky reflecting on the sea on another day from big windows."

"The hotel is in a good spot with bus stops outside, the sea is just across the road, the pier and amusement are just a short walk, also you can walk into the town but we always catch the bus."
