Very convenient and clean (although slight damp smell throughout) and staff were lovely! This is a pretty basic hotel though - room large with comfy bed but warm - and if you don't have a room in the hotel itself you are nowhere near the sea - wasn't a problem for us. It's a very busy locals pub though which we were good with but not a tranquil seaside stay. And parking is tricky as need to top up at the off-site carpark at 8am each day. Good breakfast tho!

.There was big fat flies coming out of the bathroom air vent. .The entrance smells smoky. .It was the heat wave and asked the staff for a fan and he said he will bring it but never did. .I did not get a beach view i was taken to a hostel around the corner about 3 mins away from the beach. .Did not use the bar.

The overnight stay was a pleasure the staff were welcoming and helpful. The bar is well stocked and the cooked breakfast very tasty. The building looks a bit tired not surprising as it is originally an 18th century coaching inn but that didn’t spoil our stay.
