What an amazing place to stay!!! The staff were exceptionally friendly. Everything ran smoothly. The room in the hotel was spacious with a kitchen area. We requested a room suitable for my mum who has mobility issues and the room we got was perfect- no steps, near thw restaurant and with a little outside patio area. Perfect location for the town and me and daughter easily walked in via the beach and the road. Great spot for surf. A really laid back place to stay.

Served a purpose

Excellent location with a good range of on-site amenities. Room we had (ground floor and designed for disabled use - we’re not disabled) was not in great condition or cleanliness (e.g. there was a doggy smell lingering). Staff we met were friendly.

Good offerings for a family. Basic, no frills apartment. Wasn’t keen on the bathroom facilities as the shower position was poor and didn’t allow for easy use. Some of the bathroom facilities need updating- towel rail was rusted in some areas and the flooring was coming away on the sides. We would go back but would like to see some modernising of the rooms. Good breakfast and dinner menu. Food was nice. The pool was a good size and well maintained The surrounding gardens were immaculately kept. Reception and restaurant staff were really friendly and helpful.

Clean, spacious rooms, not too busy, good food selection for breakfast but disappointingly limited for evening meal. All facilities well looked after and fit for purpose. Standard of customer service delivered by the staff team was consistently high. Fantastic location with excellent access to Croyde beach. Obvious that real care has been taken to provide a high quality resort facility, ideal for families.
