“In my opinion, this hotel's location hits a sweet spot, convenient to both South and North Bay attractions. I noticed the hotel's dog-friendly policy extends beyond lip service, even benefitting a local animal charity. The sea views and private terraces strike me as particularly special, and the recent updates make it a smart choice.”

i enjoyed my stay. the king room sea view had great views (really lovely). the space for parking was a plus for me. breakfast was also quite good.
the heating went off at 11pm, then came on in the morning for a little, a bit chilly during the night.

the hotel is close to two beaches. this made it easy to access both areas for walks and entertainment. a nearby route provides easy access to the beachfront for those who walk.

Excellent Hotel Experience

freshly prepared breakfastfree wifieasy accessparking issue
The team showed great hospitality . Breakfast was freshly prepared. The menu had several options. The hotel provided free, strong WiFi. I recorded speeds around 80mbit down. I liked the excellent route to the beachfront I discovered, it made access really easy.
I had some issues with parking, I was asked to move my car soon after arrival. It felt a bit inconvenient. I wish there was more available parking on the premises.

The hotel is near the Castle. The walk is nice. There is a route to the beach down past the church and parking. It only takes about 10 yards. it is a good spot.

A full English breakfast was cooked to order. It tasted very nice. Rump steak was cooked to perfection. It was piping hot. The continental breakfast seemed a little basic.
