Great location, accommodating host, clean room and unofficial DIY breakfast facilities for a good price.

Pros:

The location is great, not too far from the sea front, and quiet at night. We were welcomed by Emma, a friendly hostess, who was very attentive and kindly messaged us earlier than our booking time to let us know our room was available if we wanted to come and check in, which was brilliant and welcomed as we were carrying our away bags.

The room was slightly small, however, it had everything we needed, was clean, and had little shampoo, conditioner and soaps which was a lovely touch, the bed and pillows were really comfy and even though the windows were open, there was very little noise, so a good sleep was had.

Breakfast wasn’t included, however, there were cereals, snacks, and pop etc downstairs for you to help yourself, which was a thoughtful gesture and appreciated.


I’m sure we will come again as anything was spot on 👍👌😊

Clean, with a very approachable hostess, and within easy walking distance of the seafront.
Pros:

Lovely and clean, with plenty of tea/coffee etc and shampoo/showergel etc in the room. Breakfast wasn’t included, but in a downstairs reception room, cereals, yoghurts, fresh fruit, bread, bottles of water, fresh milk, snacks etc…were on offer to help yourself to, as and when, which was a lovely thoughtful touch and much appreciated 😊. Although it was a Bank holiday weekend, we found parking was good, and it was lovely and quiet, and only a few mins walk away from the seafront. Emma was very welcoming too, and very approachable. This was our 3rd stay here, and hopefully there will be more to come😊.

Cons:

Only a small gripe, and it was only small, and that is, we found it difficult to fill the kettle up in our room as the sink was so small, but we just filled one of the mugs up and transferred it to the kettle, that way😊.
