Great location across from the beach and near the town. Stunning sunsets! Room was very small - set up as twin as requested but made it very hard to get round bed to shower room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good. Overall it was good value for money.

The location is absolutely fabulous, you’re as close to the beach as you could get. The outdoor patio is a wonderful place to just sit and relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. The breakfast offers three choices on top of the serve yourself items like cereal, fruit and croissants. I tried all three options, the traditional Scottish was my favorite, The hotel is dog friendly, and I enjoyed seeing the furry travel companions. There’s a Fish and Chips Take Away place just a 2 minutes walk away , and the hotel itself has a restaurant also

Rooms a bit in need of an update but very c!ean. Excellent location, especially if you get a sunny day. Short walk to the town. Breakfast was excellent. Good menu. Traditional Scottish breakfast was superb. Good quality ingredients, well cooked and presented. Also nice to get pots of tea or coffee instead of from a machine.

Excellent location and we’ve been coming here for years. Lately the decor is increasingly tired looking with particularly seating and carpets stained, broken shower fitting and shower curtain outdated. Breakfast was good quality and generous. Certain reception staff require training in customer service and complaint handling.
