It needs to be pointed out to potential visitors that there is no lift within the building so disabled people and those with heavy luggage will have difficulty accessing the rooms above the ground floor.

Loved this quiet property Spotlessly clean and large room. Only slight down would be the size of the bathroom which larger people would find hard to use. We will certainly use again and have already found out about another room to use.

Loved the 1st floor bay window … lots of light and solar gain. Perfectly positioned sofa in front of the window. En-suite bathroom was a good bonus. The main strip and beach are a stones through away. Only downside was the mattress…. Which dipped at the sides and was uncomfortable.

Great value property..lovely sea front location!

We had the deluxe sea view (room 2). It was very nice and spacious with a large bay window and a settee to look out to sea. It was a reasonable price and much better than some other more expensive hotel rooms. Yes..it was room only rate but you had breakfast places across the road and 100 yards down the sea front at the pier plus shops in the small town just a few mins walking distance. Free Parking on the road outside might be a problem but we found a space always just outside or a few yards from the property. The only down side was a very small on suite bathroom but it was no major problem. Very clean and well maintained property that i would gladly recommend!
