Just a one night stop over after getting off the ferry at 10.00pm. Friendly welcome, lots of parking and a big comfortable room with a bath was just what I needed. Bar was open and again the staff were great. Good choice at breakfast and good, attentive staff. Easy, comfortable and great value stay.

Good but can do better

First impression was positive as room clean and spacious. … but I’ve rated my stay as average as no hot water in the morning (mentioned it at reception who seemed to be very relaxed in their response that this happened). Breakfast was not worth paying extra for - really disappointing as breakfast is priced at £10

Lovely hotel and would stay again. Areas are a little dated and with simple, cheap changes like new shower mats in the bath would make the rooms so much better (these look mouldy underneath)
