Enjoyed our stay here, a great position on the sea front, harbour to the left, beach to the right. Seemed to be the meeting place for food and drink for locals as well as residents. Accomodation dated but adequate.. Superb cod and chips in the Bistro Bar restaurant. Free car parking at rear of hotel and limited spaces to the front.
