This quaint hotel is excellently located next to the sea. The view was lovely. I sat at the window with a cup of tea and watched and listened to the waves crashing. The food is really good too.

Great hotel fabulous location this was our fourth stay at this hotel and it never disappoints. Location is great near to transport links which are reasonably priced .Friendly attentive staff , great breakfast and a fabulous menu for evening meals . The staff are always on hand if you need anything .Rooms are a good size and smartly furnished. Hairdryer iron and board provided. Tea and coffee topped up daily Rooms are cleaned daily and the communal areas are spotless . The owner even went the extra mile providing crutches for me following a fall in the town. I would recommend this hotel.

We enjoyed our stay recently. The day manager was engaging and friendly and made us feel welcomed. Nice guy. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. Hygiene and cleanliness is a priority and the hotel is perfectly situated on the sea front.

A lovely warm welcome at reception and the hotel seems to have been recently decorated . It was clean and comfortable and I had an amazing view of the sea from my window. I had been worried that it might be noisy as there is a bar downstairs but we never heard anything. Would be happy to recommend. If staying over a weekend street parking is nearby and free from 6pm on Saturday until Monday morning.
