There are parts of the exterior of the building that need some attention but overall it is a fabulous building standing above sloping gardens. Inside is beautiful. The bar and restaurant have sea views and are warm, cosy and welcoming. The staff were excellent, very attentive and friendly. Our room had a sea view. It was spotless as was the en suite.

Love the Hotel. I m 80 now. I was always there with my parents. As a wee boy it's got a great feeling to it. Only thing I was dissatisfied with. Was fried breakie. It went cold quick too. It cost me. 30£ for two my wife ate very little of it.
