Room 14 was fantastic and we would happily stay again.
We didnt see anything that warranted a low score and the breakfast was great, with a nice choice available.
The hotel is just a stroll from the beach with good parking available.
Thank you for a lovely couple of nights at your lovely hotel.

Breakfast disappointing
My husband was disappointed that they didn't offer a cooked breakfast. The room was clean and well presented. It did have a very noisy floor, squeaky.

The room was all tastefully decorated in silver and sparkles. Quite a pretty surprise! The gentleman running it was delightful.
It was in easy walking distance to the beach …about 5 minutes at slow speed.
Beach was lovely.

Wake up at daybreak!......
We stayed in a deluxe suite for two nights. This is a lovely room with large bathroom although quite a small shower. Bed very comfortable and all is exceptionally clean. The problem we had is that the curtains are very thin and our room has large bay window plus side window so in the summer you get woken up at sunrise around 4:30 am. (Unless you're a good sleeper of course!)
There are few facilities so it is really an expensive bed & breakfast. Very good continental breakfast, which was fine for us, although sign says "no cooked breakfast available."
We asked the owner if any rooms had blackout curtains and he said 'no' as none of his clients wanted this and he's been in the business for 46 years so he knows best! He also said if we want dark curtains we should stay in another hotel!

Very pleasant and welcoming stay.
Had a lovely pleasant stay. Had a very welcoming experience from the owner who seemed genuinely pleased to see us. Gave us all the information we needed and showed us to our room. The room was immaculately clean and very spacious, as was the en-suite. Breakfast was an abundance of fresh yoghurt, pastries, cheeses and cereals. Hot tea and coffee with crumpets, toast etc. would definitely recommend and we will stay again.
