Lovely property just minor Annoying issues
Pros:

Beautiful room with excellent view.

Cons:

Smelled of pungent cooking and curry. Shower head very loose so difficult to get good shower. TV not working so I had to mess around for an hour reattaching ariel plug but was still not connecting properly. Just a bit annoying.

It was adequate for a 2 night stay
Pros:

Right by the sea, good size room and bathroom

Cons:

Quite far from train station.
Only one key given to us which opened the front door and our room door. Which surely meant it opened all doors
🤔
Breakfast served between 7.30-8.30 very early for a holiday booking

Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay here. The room was very clean and well-organised, with everything prepared nicely. The staff were extremely kind and went out of their way to help us find a better, more suitable room. The view was great, and the bed was very comfortable. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Kind and caring owners and staff plus excellent overall accommodation at modest cost made this one of our best stays.
Pros:

Fabulous sea view. Nearness to sea (across from the small park opposite). Nearness to major routes and easy access to them. Large relaxed style room - 5ft king size mattress set in sleigh bed. Plenty of storage for a week’s stay. Exceptionally kind down-to-earth staff. Private parking enough for all rooms. Plenty hot water. Good room heating and windows that open. Well stocked hospitality tray and a kettle. Breakfast available but just two choices and as late risers we preferred to eat from the many eateries around us.

Cons:

Poor clamp holding shower head in place and bathroom is cold. No heated towel rail which meant we needed more towels than normal as they didn’t dry off during the day. Also if you turn the sink tap on too quickly you risk water shooting out and soaking contents of drawers underneath. All small issues the owners could remedy easily without great expense. Fridge good half size (could do with being on a platform)
