The room was clean and comfortable. We had a nice view of the countryside even though we were not facing the sea. The staff were nice and friendly. The only downside was that the parking facilities were quite limited and the space was always tight.

Friendly staff good choice at breakfast. Ordered hot breakfast from your table which was lovely to be waited on. Room spacious. Hotel handy for walking into town and on the beach. Lovely view of the beech from the hotel room. There was limited parking at the hotel but we got a space each time.
