Stayed for just one night. Our room was spacious, well equipped, and clean. We ate our evening meal at the hotel as well as our breakfast - both meals were excellent. All the staff were extremely welcoming and polite. I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel.

Lovely hotel in brilliant position. Very friendly staff, beautiful comfy room with huge freestanding bath and shower. Easy free parking nearby. Vegan options for breakfast and evening meal and good choice of drinks. Mix of shops and coffee shops very close and beautiful setting looking out to the water. Very much enjoyed our stay. We drove to nearby national trust property and to other coastal areas for walks.
