The RMH is a former sailers club turned into a hotel. It has an extensive library of books about sailing and the British Navy. If yiure a fan if British Naval history, you could spend hours there. We also found the restaurant to be excellent and ate our evening meal there twice. Menu selection was excellent, reasonably priced and food was good. Staff were very friendky and helpful especially Lucy at the front desk and Arpranna in the restaurant
