Great place for taking your dog lots of walks nearby. Even a separate dinning room that you can take your pet into when at breakfast. Great views over the harbour.The only downside would be the evening dinner menu could be a bit more exciting and maybe a specials choice so as not the same menu each night.

The location of the hotel is outstanding on the cliff top overlooking the harbour and the sea. The rooms are comfortable. On our last stay however the breakfast buffet service was disappointing, with a lack of hot food for around 30 minutes

Pamela

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately we had no hot water in the shower. The TV was not working properly and the windows were jammed shut. A member of staff pleasantly tried to sort the hot water issue but we only achieved a warm temperature. Maybe we got off to a bad start seeing all the signs instructing us to pay for car parking on arrival. This is not welcoming.

Fabulous location, good food, nice staff. Bedroom door had terrible squeak, saw the handyman and he said he would fix it, but didn’t! In the morning took a long time to check out as the computer would not upload, it was 9.30! Parking £6.50 a night, not stated on the booking🙄

Fantastic Hotel

It is a lovely hotel. The staff were brilliant. Nothing was a problem. Very Clean. It is suitable for all walks of lives. Only one thing i would say is that it could do with a lick of paint to freshen it up.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff friendly and helpful tho woefully undermanned, every staff member seemed to have 2 or 3 jobs.they were excellent despite the pressure. Booked unto a"superior" double room ,it certainly was not. The room we were moved to was lovley a great improvement. One thing that stuck in my throat the new parking policy: to pay almost£150 a night and then to b charged to park at the hotel is quite frankly digusting, especially as it is subject to dynamic pricing. I would b reluctant to stay here again solely because of this issue
