Logistically superb - lots of walks, beach, at low tide you can go rock pooling etc. Bus stop right outside - which when the weather isn't great is a useful option to get around. There are small bus routes that loop certain areas - and you get a running commentary so worth jumping on. Hotel is fabulous - views are amazing, food is delicious, and good value, room were exceptional (you must like the sound of the sea) and the staff are kind, informative and go above and beyond.

This is a very well-located hotel, with well-appointed rooms. We enjoyed our meal in the restaurant. The negative is the thumping bass in the bar/restaurant...it seemed OK at dinner, but was unpleasant at breakfast time. Our beautiful suite, the Victoria Suite, was right above the bar/restaurant and the bass from around 7.30 am to 11.30 pm detracted from an otherwise lovely stay. So if you are noise sensitive I would suggest choosing a room well away from the bar/restaurant. If you aren't, you will enjoy the view from the balcony and the decadent bathroom!

Had a great couple of days at this hotel. Staff friendly hotel, lovely with great rooms super doggy, friendly and great food. Only pity in the area is the beach adjacent to the hotel is not doggy friendly during the summer. Other than that fantastic couple of days They also run a fshuttle to the Hut restaurant, which is well worth a visit.
