Reported heater not working. Staff came to room to explain it should be on with 15 mins. Had dinner back to room. Still no heating. Extremely disappointing. Desperately needed an exhaust fan in the bathroom. Hooks to hang towels on and a towel dryer.

Ellie and other staff made the stay exception. Really felt welcomed. The food at the restaurant was excellent. The best I’ve had in Ireland or Scotland. I was initially preparing for not so great food, but the food at this place was beyond great. Plus the service was excellent.

Major advantage having the great beach right there. Overall good stay. Just a little thought, they need a couple of boot/shoe scuppers at entrance. Inexpensive on Amazon. Simple doormat very insufficient! Your shoes Drag in a lot of sand and dirt. Wonderful experience in dining room! Server Sandy was exceptional!! Made our stay much more enjoyable!

Very nice hotel close to the water. Stayed for 3 nights and the young blond lady working the front desk, I am sorry I did not catch your name, was extremely professional and helpful and a pleasure to deal with. What a gem!
