It's a welcoming small hotel with friendly, helpful staff in a beautiful harbour location. There's a buzzing bar area with tables, and a separate dining room for guests - both serving the same menus. Fantastic base for enjoying and exploring the area

Only stayed for one night but next time will stay longer. Room was great with balcony which had sea views and a pleasant breeze. The car park is only big enough for a few cars with a cliff charging stations but there is plenty of free parking around the hotel. Fantastic location on edge of harbour and close to everything.
