We had the pleasure of staying with Ruth at the view. We were in a top floor penthouse room with stunning view to the sea & a small balcony to the rear Chatted with Ruth on arrival who kindly showed us to the room. Ruth explained it was a soft opening & a few finishing touches would be completed later. These didn’t spoil our stay. Lovely time with a friendly host you will not be disapponted. Many thanks Ruth ..

Very new fantastic appointments. A little difficult to find the building, some improved signage would be advantageous.

Room was clean and everything in good working order. Also pet friendly which was a bonus. Only issue for us was the parking. Doesn’t seem to be enough spots for the number of units. We went out for dinner and couldn’t get a spot when we returned and had to park on the narrow road.
