The crown jewel of our trip, lovely large rooms, stunning sea views, and the best stay ever!
Pros:

Exceptional 2 night stay. As soon as we entered this hotel it felt amazing. It felt like we were entering a place that was meant for royalty and there were so many interesting ornaments and paintings for us to look at. The staff were so friendly and accomodating. The rooms were massive and spotless and had everything we needed as well as an amazing ocean view. Breakfast was delicious and well presented. You can really feel the pride and love that has been put into all aspects of this Hotel. Out of 14 other places we stayed on this SWCP holiday, this was definetly our favourite. Our highest recomendation possible!

Cons:

Absolutly nothing. Everything was perfect!

Charmantes Hotel in super Lage
Pros:

Charmantes Hotel mit wunderschönen
Blick auf die Bucht. Es war sehr sauber, die Betten wirklich gut und das schöne grosse Bad hatte uns Platz genug gegeben. Das Frühstück hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt und hat unsere Erwartungen voll erfüllt. Die Möglichkeit einen kleinen Obst- und Gebäckssack in extra vorbereiteten Beutel mitzunehmen, fanden wir sehr aufmerksam.
Auch der Ausgangspunkt zu dem unmittelbaren Küstenweg zu Valley of Rocks hat uns sehr begeistert. Rundum für uns eine absolut empfehlenswerte Unterkunft.

Es war faszinierend, Alleine wegen dem Abendessen kommen wir sicher wieder
Pros:

Das Haus zu finden war ein Glücksfall, ein ehrwürdiges Haus mit zeitgemäßer Ausstattung.
Die Gastgeber sind ausgesprochen gastfreundlich und bemüht
Das angebotene Abendessen und das Frühstück im Salon des Hauses sind ausgezeichnet.
Auf unserer nächsten Reise in den Süden Englands kommen wir sicher wieder hier her.

Pros:

Quel endroit splendide et atypique! Nous avons beaucoup aimé la gentillesse des propriétaires de la maison et la vue incroyable. Le petit déjeuner servi dans une belle salle avec nappe blanche sur les tables; on se sent vraiment plongé dans une ambiance so british... lovely!

Cons:

Rien. Tout était parfait!

A Wonderful Place!
Pros:

This is such a magical place perched up on the cliff side with gorgeous views out to sea.
The owners are very friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable with various teas, coffee and biscuits provided in the room. Breakfast is delicious with plenty of choices. They are very aware of food allergies, especially celiac and wheat intolerance. There is a separate menu for gluten free meals. The owners used to run a bakery and bake their own bread including gluten free which is absolutely delicious. Each day there are cakes in the breakfast room which you can help yourself to and take away for later if you’ve filled up on their other breakfast offerings.
This was our second visit and I’m sure we’ll be back!
