Wonderful Stay at the Fernhill. Loved it!
Pros:

Absolutely fantastic stay at the Fernhill. Large quiet room with a wonderful sea view and two comfy chairs. I would say the price was cheap for the excellent quality you get. Great powerful shower. Excellent breakfast, a very nice evening meal, reasonable prices including wine. Staff were also excellent. It’s an absolute gem and we will definitely come here without hesitation if we’re in this area again.

Cons:

Nothing

Ich werde wieder kommen und das Hotel weiter empfehlen
Pros:

Die Lage, die Einrichtung, Frühstück- und Essraum sowie die Aussicht. Das Nacht- und Frühstück Essen waren sehr gut!

Cons:

Kein Dach zwischen Haupthaus und Nebengebäude. Es regnete stark, man musste jedesmal durch den Regen.
