Love the pub & food was great. Rooms are nice for the price too, but the rooms could use some new pillows as ours were very old & had to fold them in half. Overall it was a good stay ☺️

The home of Red Dog. As we are travelling with a dog, we were made to feel very welcome. The pub is lively and great food. The rooms are a bit 1960's, but clean, safe and friendly staff.

Very basic, the tiniest room I have ever stayed in, not gross but a bit grotty and a very very tired old place. That said, I didn’t enter the pub but it seemed to be poular so must be ok.

For the price paid, was good pub accommodation. We were there for a few days and couldn’t hear the noise in our room from the pub. Meals at the pub were good. View from room was terrific, make sure u get an ocean facing room.
