Disliked: Staff & service
I would say it was more like a guest house than a hotel but with no breakfast and no staff on site. It was a clean very nice room but I hadn't realised that we would be up 4 flights of stairs and as I had recently had knee surgery it was a bit of a trial getting up to our room I wrongly assumed there would be a lift. I also was surprised that room wasn't made up every day so my husband had to go out one evening looking for milk so that we could make a cup of tea. The position of the house was very good and we had a lovely view of the Esplanade and sea.

Great location

Couple of nights in a room with a seaview. Nice big room with big 4 poster bed. Proper old style heavyweight furniture and a small dining table for 2. Bathroom is big with double shower . All bedding /towels/shower mat/in shower rubber mat supplied. Pedestal fan also supplied Tea coffee facilities . View was nice with a clear site of the sandbank. Really good location I would of liked more windows to open and better lighting and if the hotel did food it would of been great. Parking for 3 normal cars or street parking . Ann was helpfull

Would stay again

In our 2-night stay we had no contact with anyone else at the hotel, but could hear othwr guests a little from our room. Check-in was easy with guidance sent in advance, and the room was cleaned well during the day. The accomodation was clean and comfortable, although the common areas were unlit during the day so quite dark. A small amount of shampoo and shower gel was provided, and the room had a kettle. Street parking outside the hotel was free and plentiful (May bank holiday). The hotel is a short walk from the seafront, and a high street with many shops and places to eat.

I spent 3 nights and overall had an enjoyable stay. The room was a good size, very clean, and the bed very comfy. Only slight disappointment was that the advertised fridge was not in the room; I was expecting this to keep drinks cold and for packed lunches. Check in was done online and very easy. Whilst this was quick and efficient it meant the personal touch was lacking and I did not see anyone else during my stay. Great location on the promenade with pubs, restaurants, and the station within walking distance.

Impersonal, but good value. Visiting housekeeper

Historically interesting, the house was managed at a distance, with access via text message, etc. Most of the reviews related to a different period when breakfasts were served and people greeted you. Bed was comfy apart from one awkward spring, but because of the heat the place needed a really good airing with all the windows open for a while. The cleaning housekeeper was great, and ran after us with something we had left. Glad to visit and good value.
