Relaxing , well worthy of another visit, i feel refreshed and ready for work monday! What an Place!
Pros:

Very freindly staff, very atentive, always ready to help and answer any questions you had, about the facilities within the hotel and lots of local knowledge, they helped to make our stay very enjoyable, the food was fantastic, the breakfast set you up for the day! I will be recomending this hotel to family and friends without fear. Charmouth and Lyme Regis are great places to visit with lots to see and do, did some sea glass hunting on Charmouth beach, very good, and possibly find a fossil or two, but i didnt this time! Overall great hotel, great part of the world to visit!!

Cons:

It was too good , i had nothing to moan about!! Lol

Sehr zu empfehlen!
Pros:

Es war eine spontane Buchung, da es in England sehr heiss war und wir eine Unterkunft mit Pool suchten. Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und fühlten uns sofort wie zu Hause. Alle waren überaus hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war perfekt, und man konnte auch abends dort essen. Das Abendessen war zwar etwas teuer, aber alles in allem haben wir unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und uns wohlgefühlt.

Cons:

Gefallen hat alles, einzig das Abendessen war für englische Verhältnisse eher teuer.
