Beautiful hotel. Great staff, amazing service. Ocean view room gets warm in the full sun. Parking was a challenge on a bank holiday weekend. Would stay again.

We ended up The Glengower because of an error with our original booking. It ended up being a much better option: the staff was lovely, the bar and restaurant was great, and the rooms were nice and comfortable for what we needed. And right by the water and shops around the corner. We would definitely stay here again.
