Highly recommended
Pros:

We had a lovely stay at The Harbour Inn. Also had a delicious diner at the restaurant. The hotel is beside a busy road but it was surprisingly quiet in the rooms.

Ruhiges Hotel am Meer
Pros:

Extrem saubere Zimmer. Das Pub im gleichen Haus serviert sehr gutes Essen.
Schnelles und unkompliziertes Einchecken.
Frühstück sehr reichhaltig, schönes Ambiente im Frühstücksraum.

Cons:

Zimmer etwas klein. Lage zwar am Meer aber leider etwas ausserhalb des Dorfes.
