A lovely, large hotel on the far end of the marina, so a little deserted when walking back at night as it is open ground on the opposite side of the road where some camper vans were parked up, but we were there at a very quiet time, so would probably be better at busier time of year when more people may be walking back. Hotel is very nice, clean, good size room and had some nice touches. My son loved getting back to the room to see if the curtains had been closed and the chocolate fairy had been! Breakfast was also a pleasant experience with lots of choice and a nice bright breakfast room. The hotel has bikes that you can use, however you can’t book them so it’s just your luck if you get to them first. The spa pool is cold to the extent I couldn’t get into it! But maybe that’s just my personal preference that I like to be able to walk into a luke warm pool, so it didn’t entice me to use it more than the one visit. The local beach is stunning and you can get to it quickly by using one of the gates near the children’s play park and going over the bridge, but it’s not very well signposted and you could miss the gates if you didn’t specifically know to walk to that part of the hotel grounds. You need to buzz security and give them your room number to gain re-entry, whereas some of the other gates you use your room card to swipe. Lots of nice restaurants in the Marina to choose from. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would return again for a short stay.
