Staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome; hotel in a great location and the room was spacious with a wonderful view, specialist diet/allergies catered for on the varied breakfast menu. Clearly the hotel is being refreshed under new management for 2026. We managed to park each time, but imagine it could be more difficult in high season when things are busier.

Lovely location opposite the beach , clean room but hotel needs update all over , carpets doors and wall showing age , did not eat in hotel as close to lovely town centre , the shower had little pressure no way could shower properly , we only stay one night so was adequate for what we needed.
