Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The staff in the castle dining room was attentive. Food choices on the menu were extensive. Lots of seafood. Though travelling on my own, I found it easy chat to other guests during mealtimes. Plenty of sanitisers round the property. Booking of swimming pool ensured covid restrictions were followed. I enjoyed the swims almost every day. Great location for town centre. Fabulous sea views from the hotel. The luggage pickup and drop off service was much appreciated.
