Great location just a short drive from the beach. Plenty of shopping in walking distance and a nice farmers market on the doorstep when we were there. Helpful guide in the room detailing local activities and pleasant staff working throughout during our stay. The room was also well equipped and the bed super comfortable

Great

We really enjoyed our stay. Ot was a great family room which had the kids room attached with door between and was great because of that. I felt very safe here which is important due to my anxiety. There is a coutyard outside our window but notices it was closed at 10 so was great and not noisy. We had Dyson fans in our room which helped with the heat as it was summertime. All staff were very frkendly and professional.

Good with a couple of minor niggles

We were very impressed by all the staff we encountered during our stay. We stayed for one night in Room 110 which was a good size with lots of character. A few of things let it down, the mattress too saggy, the shower seal not great so the bathmat became sodden very quickly and the coffee machine wouldn’t work. However, we really enjoyed our stay and would book again.

Liked the whole vibe of the hotel. Sat in the lovely courtyard to have our lovely lunch (good choice of veggie options) pre- booking in. Excellent service from the staff, particularly Jack. Very easy check in, with room ready early. Bed was comfortable and shower facility was grand. Nice selection of teas and coffee in room with lovely shortbread. Altogether a very pleasant stay, with breakfast included

Liked the history and originality. Welcoming, happy, helpful. Lovely breakfasts with plenty of choice. Good size bedroom, but outside plant coming in the bathroom window. Would have liked instructions for coffee machine. Good instructions to get to the car park round the back. No lift (because of age of the building). but stairs could be challenging for any with severe mobility problems.

We were given room 108, which was hot like a furnace as I understand it’s above the kitchen. I couldn’t sleep for two nights in a row because of the heat. What was best in this hotel was its staff. However, on the last day, we preebooked a table by the window for four guests and were moved into a cramped space at the back of the room. The rooms we were in also were in great need of an update.

Our rooms badly needed an upgrade. One of our rooms was 108, which was above the kitchen and was so not we could hardly sleep. Most rooms overlook the patio area, which can be noisy, and most rooms are overlooked by the rooms on the opposite side.
