Small car park, excellent staff!
Very good greating when i walked on. Directed to receptionist who was very helpful. Car park behind hotel and small but had a lot of cars in it. Instructions to find it much more difficult than the drive to it. Lovely food, dinner and breakfast, and only woke once in the night. Overall: excellent. Thank you.

Would stay again
Really friendly, helpful staff. Room was small but did what i needed so no issues. Room was lovely and clean along with the bathroom. Decent rain fall shower which was nice. Great location if you wanted a walk up the beach front etc. Good breakfast again with happy, friendly staff. Stayed for business but would be happy to go back for a few nights with the family.
