Very friendly staff. I had the opportunity to order an evening meal (Sunday) which was excellent. Breakfast was included which again was excellent. Help yourself to cereal, fruit juice and DIY toast. I ordered the vegan hot breakfast which was brought to me on a plate, everything was hot and cooked to my liking. My room had plenty of space and was quiet, although you could hear other residents shutting their doors. It would have been nice to have had a separate table in the room apart from the dressing table and bedside tables. I found the hot water to be hot at any time of day. The one drawback was, that the grab rails on the bath where fixed, had black mould around the edges. Apart from that, everything else appeared clean and it would not deter me from rebooking again in the future.

We had an excellent stay thank you. My only criticism is the new rooms are directly on the car park so can be a little noisy with people coming and going. However, we look forward to returning.

Lovely short stay.

Warm welcome and great service. The whole team were very friendly at all times whether on reception, serving breakfast or just passing in corridors. Lovely room - very warm but housekeeping took steps to minimise this ahead of arrival. Good breakfast choices, well prepared.

Lovely place to stay

Lovely hotel with a beautiful room and comfy bed. Food in the restaurant was amazing with huge portions. Let down was that the gravel leading to the ground floor cabins was deep and my powered wheelchair struggled so hubby had to push in places. This could be fixed by having a dedicated pathway leading to them as there is already a disabled parking space there although we were told the cabins were new and I assume the gravel was too so this may get better as it gets crushed by more vehicles. Also no mini fridge so no way to cool either the complementary bottled water or your own drinks and only a rather noisy fan (which squeaked) during a heatwave to keep you cool unless you spent your time at the bar/restaurant which seemed to have air con.

Im afraid its not a good review. My view was of a fence 4ft away and some bad condition cable haging off a wall??? Needed to ask for toilet roll (quickly resolved) Asked the waiter for some salad dressing for my Meal, he told me chef has put some on and didnt get any. Breakfast had re cooked bacon, re cooked single tiny suasage the rest was fine. I've never understood skimping on the last meal a hotel gives its guest. Charge another £1.00 and feed us properly. The place had a nice calm atmosphere and is in a quite area. Comfetable bed and a well apointed room with plenty of tea-coffe etc.

This was a last minute impromptu trip and I am really glad we chose this place. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was good and reasonably priced and the room was lovely. It's near the seaside and also historical towns so there is lots to see and do within a short drive. We will definitely be going again.
