Dog Friendly Break

Had a 2 night stay with our 2 dogs & dined in the restaraunt both nights. Our spacious room on the 2nd floor was lovely. Cosy bar area & comfortable dog friendly restaurant area. Staff were very welcoming to both us & our dogs. The beach & dunes are a short walk away. Parking could be a problem, spaces for 3 residents cars at the back of hotel, otherwise street parking. Overall an enjoyable stay.

A little gem

I chose the twin room, which was compact, but there were nice chairs to sit on, everything was spotless and the shower room was spacious and very clean. The staff were all very kind and friendly. Internet was good too. Sat Nav got me to outside the hotel, but the tiny lane to the back of the hotel was difficult to see as I was onnmy own. On my third drive round the one way system I gave up and found a parking place and just walked. The food was tasty and well presented.

Good but over-priced

Nice friendly staff, room was way too hot but you can’t help the weather. Clean but slightly tired and overpriced for what it was. Maybe we just picked an expensive night, not terrible but I wouldn’t stay there at that cost again. Breakfast was good.
