    Friendly staff, clean and comfortable accommodation. Excellent location for walking to the Open Air Theatre (35mins) but much closer 10mins from South Bay beach. Delicious breakfast. Slept like a log.

    The Raincliffe Hotel is a beautiful old tall building on a street with complementary old tall buildings. They also have huge front gardens and hills. I loved all the bushes, trees and greenery of the hotel's property - especially beautiful in May....
