Traditional British seaside hotel
Pros:

This is in every sense a traditional seaside hotel - food is great and the team provide a real welcome

Cons:

Won’t suit everybody as it is traditional and that means dated but if you want an authentic seaside hotel bringing back the memories - this is superb

Perfect!
Pros:

Warm, friendly staff.
My room was lovely, comfortable bed all the facilities I would require, lovely sea view and particularly I felt safe in my room as you could turn a lock from the inside and that was reassuring. I also noticed an iron and ironing board available for use which is always a bonus.
Breakfast room was very well presented, beautifully set tables and very efficient friendly staff., the food being very good.

Cons:

I have no complaints whatsoever!
