Parking available, check in was very easy. Staff were always friendly and professional. The room was clean. Coffee, tea and water available in the room. Just across from the sea which made it a really relaxing break. Breakfast was great, with a lot of options available. You could choose from continental, English or both types of breakfast. Check out also very straightforward.

The stay was fine. Bit of a dated room and slow service at the bar. Room had those annoying curtains that don’t close properly so the room is bright at sunrise 😂 Beautiful location, great breakfast but the reason for the poor review is that I was silly enough to leave my toiletries behind And oh boy what a pain to retrieve them. Had to call four times and email twice before they sent them on. Just super disorganised.
