Newly refurbished room, so a nice fresh space with great views of the coast and comfortable bed. Shower had great pressure, although the toiletries dispenser kept falling off the wall which was a bit of a hazard. Bar area was spacious but nice and warm on a cool day.

The staff here were nothing short of excellent, nothing was too much trouble. Hot and cold buffet breakfast, had an evening meal, the haddock and chips was to die for. Clean and tidy room, unfortunately we had a downstairs room which looked out over the front of the hotel, probably a net curtain or maybe some kind of blind would have offered some privacy as arriving guests were outside our window. The hotel would benefit from a bit of money spending on it as it was quite tired in places.

Had a nice welcome and stay. The room was comfortable and clean with a lift as it was on the second floor. The restaurant was nice and the menu seemed good, however neither of us really enjoyed the meal which was over prepared was a shame. The food had either been kept too long before serving or just overcooked.
