Good location, short walk to beach and pub. Hotel nice, room good bathroom really dated but clean. Bed not the comfiest, if you need to park then you need to reserve a spot (£10 a night) at the hotel, not many spots on the street but we did find one close every night. Would definitely come again.

I love staying in this beautiful old hotel. It is a stones throw from the town and beach with beautiful views across the sea to Torbay and beyond. Breakfasts are fantastic and catered for my weird veggie dairy free diet with ease. The staff here are always so friendly and welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. Oh and my two dogs love it as well.
