The on-site Terrace Restaurant is a strong point, sourcing local produce and offering panoramic seaside vistas. While some may find the decor a touch dated, the overall experience is elevated by the staff's attentiveness and the hotel's dog-friendly policy, making it a practical and welcoming base for exploring the region.”
