Beautiful room with a beautiful view

Hotel is great. Room is big and spacious with a beautiful sea view. Everything is great for the price, only negative is the size of the shower cubicle, it’s quite small and a struggle if you’re on the bigger side. But I would definitely stay again.

A great place to stay in Lowestoft.

A great place to stay in Lowestoft. Excellent value for money. We had the Deluxe room and it was worth every penny. Spacious, comfortable bed, super clean bathroom, tea and coffee. I am a well travelled person and this was super comfortable. The view was amazing, breakfast over the road and free on-road parking. Perfect. The hosts were super kind to make us comfortable with check in and out. A lovely visit to Lowestoft.

Loved this quiet property Spotlessly clean and large room. Only slight down would be the size of the bathroom which larger people would find hard to use. We will certainly use again and have already found out about another room to use.
