WONDERFUL SEASIDE HOTEL

We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay here. Situated in a beautiful seaside town, this classic hotel was filled with history and character. The staff was exceptional, and the breakfast was first rate. Our stay was peaceful, quiet, and comfortable. We would recommend this hotel and would very happily stay again.

A great place to stay for a short break

A great place to stay for a short break. Close to the beach and a short walk to shops and bars. Good breakfast. Comfortable room although the mattress probably needs to be replaced (Room 3). Wonderful military decor and history pictures.

This is not a conventional hotel but rather a guest house with a fascinating history and purpose. It is run as a charity with a worthwhile purpose and deserves business but just know what you are getting. No question I would go back. Seafront view marvelous.

Quirkily excellent. On arrival it is not obviously a hotel since it says it is a retreat for ex services. But they do operate as an hotel, so that is the first step. Then you find it to be full of memorabilia for all branches of the service, good breakfast though not till 8am, no evening meals, but short walks bring you to good food.

A charity runs this guest house, and we loved that it was also a Memorial Holiday Centre and a great tribute to all who fought in the two great wars and subsequent conflicts, encompassing all service personnel. The Guest House is a grand old property, and further upgrades are in the pipeline after this holiday season to expand the property. We really enjoyed our short stay, and the views from the property are spectacular. Well worth booking.

Nice welcome and pretty everything you could need in the room, but the bathroom was very dated for the price of the room (although shower worked well). Was advertised as Twin or Double, but found it was left as twin for single occupancy.
