United Kingdom, April 2024

8.0/10

The hotel is in a superb location, just a stone's throw away from the sandy beaches and ideal for enjoying the beautiful cliff walk. The rooms were incredibly old-fashioned but quiet, and the jacuzzi was fabulous with a big mirror with lights. The service was very accommodating and friendly, although they missed ensuring sleep comfort for their guests. The dining experience was good but sometimes felt rushed. The hotel facilities, such as the steam room, jacuzzi, and sauna pool, were top-notch.

The hotel room I stayed in for two days on the first floor was a bit run down and didn't seem like a good value for money. The setup with a corridor, a double room at one end, bunk beds at the other, and a bathroom in between was not ideal for sharing with friends, as it felt cramped. Despite that, it was clean and tidy; I might consider returning next year.

The location was excellent, just a few minutes' walk to the beach and nearby restaurants. It was also very quiet and not on the main road, making for a relaxing stay.

Dining

The dining experience was good, with a decent selection for breakfast including cereals and a cooked English breakfast. However, there were no evening meals served in the restaurant during my stay.

The property offered basic amenities but nothing extraordinary. However, the family business touch in the service was noticeable and appreciated.
