We booked a couple of rooms for a family wedding at a venue close by. Overall, it was excellent value for money and the staff were really helpful and friendly. Rooms were lovely and quiet and the breakfast was great. Very happy.

Very nice little hotel with very nice and friendly staff. Close walk to the beach. A little hot in the room but to be expected in the summer. There was a fan in the room to cool it down a little. Slept very well.

Great older property with lots of charm. The gentleman working the front desk was very helpful and kind. It was a bit warm on the top level (seasonably hot weather). but otherwise it was amazing, also lots of stairs to be aware of. The location was great and easily walkable to the sea!

A great hotel, conveniently located.

The hotel was located in a great spot, a few minutes walk from the harbour and town centre. Our room was very clean and comfortable room with everything we needed for our overnight stay. The service from all the staff we met was fantastic, they were very helpful and polite and nothing was too much trouble.
