U cant fond the place then no one was there. There was building pallets in the drive way overflowing rubbish bins that stink. Wotif should not have this place on its site unless wotifs standards have dropped so much. Couldnt find anyone so had to book another place more costs. Dont be fooled by the Seaside name its not the place is a complete opposite to what they advertise. What a disgrace.

Not the best kept place I've stayed at. Empty bottles & cans strewn around bin, old, manky outdoor furniture. Shared toilet could be cleaner. Room a bit musty. Outdoor dining facilities aren't too bad. A bit overpriced for what's delivered.

Nothing like the pictures, waited an hour and a half for the owner to show up and check me in. 3 other people were waiting with me and we all ended up leaving and staying elsewhere and the owner didn’t seem to care, didn’t try to change our minds and wouldn’t offer a refund. Disgusting.

The property owner was super lovely and was very understanding of any situation that arose during our new-years trip. She's exceptionally knowledgeable of the area and is very welcoming. The property itself is small but makes up for it with a lovely outdoor area, small treats that come for free such as lovely morning coffee sachets and complimentary hygiene products for showers and such. Mind you, it is not 5-star. But the effort is clearly there to make our stay so much more comfortable and welcoming. Overall a lovely stay and would recommend staying here!
