Short break to meet family.

Good location to meet up with daughter and grandkids, who were at nearby caravan site. Two night stay in lovely weather with great views from the hotel. Friendly hosts but room a bit small for what we paid.

Liked: Amenities
We loved this place and the owner was so helpful, friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious. Our room was large and spacious with a great bathroom. We had everything we needed and more. We appreciated the parking right at the inn. Situated across the motorway from the sea, this unique place provided an excellent oasis to recharge and go walking by the ocean. Definitely recommend it.

Steak Night

Lovely little place to stay. I caught it on a Tuesday night which is steak night and the ribeye steak was beautiful and the price was as well. It really is a nice place, if there was one thing against it for a business stay as mine was then it was a band playing until 11.00pm but it is a pub and these things happen, just a bit tiring for driving the next day. Apart from that it really was great.

Great pub

A friendly welcome from the host. He went out of his way to book us an alternative evening meal and taxi as the restaurant was booked up that day. Room was as expected. Breakfast was good and a good choice available all with friendly service.
