Good location

A good location for a short stay and a short walk to the beach. Our bathroom could do with complete modernisation but our room was spacious and comfortable.

Nice and clean. Good location

The inn in the park is somewhere we would definitely stay again. The bonus was having parking right outside. The place was everything we needed and nice and clean. The breakfast was very good too. Also just across the road from the beach.

Not great

The staff in the bar area were very polite and helpful. The food was adequate. However, on arrival i was informed that they weren't doing the breakfast the following morning, even though breakfast was included in the price. The lady did give complimentary drink in the bar to cover but disappointed that no breakfast was available. Was also informed that live music would be in the bar until 10:30pm The state of the bathroom was disappointing. All in all staff friendly buy wouldnt stay again sorry

Good place to stay

Very nice pub/restaurant with some rooms above it away from the hustle and noise of the main towns close by. Very friendly staff throughout my stay, food was great in the evening. Decent night sleep so would stay here again when in the area.

Bathroom needs some attention, had a bit of a problem over breakfast. It was included in my booking but wasn't available. They gave me a discount on my evening meal to make up for it.

Don't let the fake wisteria on the outside (which really needs to go) put you off. Inside is warm and welcoming. The Branksome room was spacious with a comfy bed and even a mini fridge, something we wish we had known before we left. All the usual pub fare but very well cooked. Very good full English breakfast. The only reason no 5*s is that there were no plain yogurts available, no choice of juice, only orange and no fruit, i.e. prunes to go with cereal. These are just small things that would not prevent us returning or recommending.

3 night stay, the room looked drab and tired but the bed was comfortable. The bathroom furnishings were ok although it needed a deep clean. The policy of not cleaning the room during occupancy since COVID should be a guest request not stipulation. There was an ample supply of tea, coffee, it would have been nice if the complimentary water and biscuits were refreshed daily. We didn’t eat in the evening but the breakfast was really good. We arrived Sunday to find food finished at 5.30pm, but were given suggestions of places to eat. Unfortunately we returned to find the bar closes at 8.30 Sunday. We found all the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Lovely place to stay. Staff very friendly and can't do enough to help, nothing is too much trouble. Rooms are very clean and spacious and food is excellent. Good off road parking and a few minutes walk to the beautiful beach. Will most definitely be staying again.
