    No car parking but was easily resolved being so early in the season. Expect to pay for the public car park in high season

    Very friendly welcome and smooth check in. Perfect location. Amazing breakfast

    The food, the steak I ordered the first night was too tough to eat, didn’t offer a replacement or refund, just offered a free drink or breakfast, neither of which I wanted. The steak was on an offer but it should have been eatable . My bill was also messed up and had to ask twice to get it sorted. We eat elsewhere the next 2 days

    There was 2 men staying in the room above ours and on the Friday and Saturday night they were extremely loud, shouting and jumping up and down on the floor. This was after 11pm and went on for hours. Left early Sunday morning due to lack of sleep.

    We have stayed here a number of times and the hotel is fantastic. Great room and view. Evening meals were lovely. Very friendly and helpful staff.

    As soon as we arrived we had a really warm welcome from Stuart which is a lovely way to start a trip. The Hotel is situated in a gorgeous position on the sea front and a real bonus just popping downstairs for lovely food and drinks. Mandy was also lovely and friendly ..nothing was too much trouble for all your staff.. we look forward to a return trip soon

    Booking.com states that there is parking but this isn’t the case. It wasn’t an issue for us as there were no street parking restrictions whilst we were there but it might be a struggle in high season

    The location was fabulous with everything on your doorstep

    On entering the hotel, you check-in by the bar, which, when busy, is a nightmare as you are standing there with your luggage and the staff are more interested in serving the public first. Breakfast was disappointing!!! When asked about breakfast, we were not advised to reserve a table, came down for breakfast most of the tables were reserved, yet again as a resident you are not priority!!! Surely they should keep tables for the residents before having the public take all the tables. Food was left waiting on the hot plate while the staff were all making the coffee's & the breakfasts were luke warm & had dried out. Rock hard sausages, toast & bacon. Two of our breakfasts were sent back twice, due to freezing cold then was told you will have to wait due to the other orders, basically you are at the back of the queue 😡😡😡😡. If like us you do not agree with dogs in a bar when there is food avoid, so many dogs are allowed in the hotel, although they have a poster a dog free zone on the wall for one area,people with dogs just ignore it and sit there.

    Location was superb, Room was clean, bed was comfortable, our room was the smallest given which was No1, not much space, but not a huge issue.

    Lovely warm welcome from Colin and his team on arrival, room was lovely and clean with everything we needed. Bed was the most comfortable I’ve slept in for many years, a definite bonus!! Food in the restaurant was really good, both for evening meal and our breakfast. A really enjoyable overnight stay, will definitely look to stay again in the future.
