This property in NO WAY resembles the description on the website, it's a mess, no food, no bar , tiny room with dangerous electrics, I wouldn't let my dog stay here and the price is outrageous for the very substandard facilities.

I booked this property as somewhere within walking distance of the Fringe By The Sea festival. When I saw the online reviews, I nearly cancelled. So glad I didn't, what a little gem !! Yes it is a bit older, yes some areas are a little tired BUT, for the cost, absolute value for money. I stayed in room 7 and my friend in room 3, both single rooms. Completely spotless, really comfortable beds which felt bigger than a single, great shower and the best touch, a little fridge full of complimentary goodies, plus a goody basket (again complimentary). Lovely, helpful staff. Would I book again, in a hearbeat. If you want 4/5 star accommodation, then go and pay those prices but this was spot on for us.

This was an ideal small hotel with a great location and great service from the owners ie room made up each and complimentary buffet breakfast in the room also each day. Our room was quite small but everything was in place and very cleàn. An ideal location close to beaches within walking distance and plenty of on road parking close to the hotel. Would recommend tò friends and family.

A decent stay
It was a nice and quaint hotel, just a little pricy for the condition it was in, though I think that’s due more to location, which was worth the price. The owners were helpful and very friendly. The chocolate mallow that was left on my bed was delicious. The walls are very thin, which can be counter productive to sleeping, and a fan would have been nice in the room, but overall, a decent place.

the property was presented as a hotel. with breakfast available as an extra, also with a bar on the 3 days of our stay the bar was closed and there was no offer of breakfast on any morning. there is also a very narrow steep stair to negotiate before accessing rooms. there was also no sign of a fire stair. Parking is across the road at the golf course.

It would be good if there were more places like that for people who simply need a decent room and shower for the night. It's a self-check in/out with a door code sent to your phone, but it does the job.

Clean, comfortable and convenient. The property operates a collect your own key from box system so you must have the pin before arrival. The shower is adequate, there is a kettle for coffee and tea. Nothing fancy but all good. Location perfect to all amenities and beach.
