Very nice place and lovely views and walks for dogs. Staff friendly and breakfast was good. A bit pricy for food but due to the location probably expected.
3-night trip

6/10

Great location but horel a little tired and in need of a refurbishment. Surprised this wasn't done over the winter as they are now in full season. Resturant food a little bland but acceptable, good breakfast selection and service. Great beach for families but everything else is a car ride away. Just about value for money but not cheap.

We had a lovely stay, exceeded our expectations on almost every count. The hotel is brilliantly dog-friendly. The breakfast offering was particularly good - a different menu, with flexibility within the options, and the buffet was lovely as well. The location is fantastic for walking and beaches, which is all we wanted for this trip, so we are very happy guests and would certainly return for another visit.

We recently stayed here to celebrate my partner’s birthday and had an absolutely wonderful time. From the moment we arrived, the staff were brilliant—welcoming, friendly, and incredibly helpful. The breakfast was a real highlight, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from each morning. The location couldn’t have been better, with easy access to some stunning local beaches. Everything about our stay was just right, making it the perfect birthday escape. Highly recommend!

Lovely stay extremely friendly and felt almost family run which was a very pleasant change. Lovely foods we ate in the restaurant and stayed in the bar all night to then have the breakfast which was amazing. A great little place to stay and after this experience I am looking for a excuse to come back.
