An amazing location with wildlife right on the doorstep. Our room (Apartment 1) had a great view with plenty of space and a useful kitchen area. The bed was very comfortable note; the bedroom view is to the side. The on-site cafe was excellent as was dining at the nearby Gyppo Ale Mill. Overall a great stay although the property is a little careworn and our balcony needed attention to the decking.

The location was very remote but everything we needed to relax. I loved the location and the view of the ocean. They had a restaurant on the first floor which was good. If you need a getaway this is it! Bring your book and a blanket to enjoy the ocean. It’s dog friendly too!

View was amazing!! Woke to the sea lions barking which was very cool. Not from the area so was surprised no AC but understood why as the evening set it… not needed. The walls were being repaired pending to be painted …. But room clean. We were on the 3rd floor which for views it was great but for carrying luggage up 3 flights of stairs not do good. Cafe below was amazing and a plus as there is not much else around.

Pet fee was reasonable, the room was clean, view is amazing. There is NOT the bbq grill as advertised (only a tiny open-face charcoal grill). There are NOT stairs directly down to the beach directly in front of the inn, as advertised and in the photos. You have to walk all the way around the back of the other hotel to go down to the beach and walk all the way back across if you want to get to the section in front of the Inn. Minor inconveniences for my personal stay. Overall stay was nice. Front office lady was very nice, everyone there was friendly.
