What a lovely hotel to stay at. The location is amazing. With beautiful views of the sea/beach. The room was clean and comfortable with plenty of dining options if you didn’t fancy eating at the restaurant on site (but the menu was really good). Will definitely be back soon

We had a room facing the road, I expected a lot of noise late at night but was suprise how quiet it was. The room was a nice size with comfortable beds and was well furnished, the bathroom was also in good order and modern. Breakfast had plenty of choice, only I didn't like the bacon (personal preference) - it was baked and not fried I believe. Location was excellent with a lovely elevated view overlooking the sea/beach from the outside area of the bar/restaurant.
