Enjoyable stay. Lovely restaurant. Would stay again
Pros:

Location was great. Lovely walks along the seafront.

Cons:

Parking is advertised but they wanted £28 per day which is bonkers. Parked on the seafront for a fraction.

Cons:

Suitcase stand

Pros:

Super never ending breakfast with just about every thing you can imagine on the list. For my monies worth just from that !
I had a twin single room. Had the usual shower,tv,toilet etc. move also to have an iron and board , safe and as there was no aircon a small fan was supplied. All in all very happy for the price i paid. Top notch breakfast choice 👌🏽

Cons:

Can’t really fault it for the price. Maybe check on could be tad earlier (3pm currently)
