Beautiful rooms with great amenities, including a pantry with sweets and cakes! Amazing breakfast in the Pearly Cow restaurant downstairs. Only downside was we were too early in the season to enjoy the rooftop (not the hotel’s fault) but plenty of bars, microbreweries and cafes nearby to choose from instead.

Lovely staycation

Staff were professional, friendly and very helpful at all times. Our 1-night stay was lovely, room very well kept and the pantry was a bonus. Lovely cocktail drinks on rooftop, helped by an amazing summers day. Brilliant location and very much enjoyed our lunch on the terrace overlooking the beach.
