Great location

The hotel was in a lovely location, the room was nice and quiet and overlooked the small harbour. The staff and the food were very good and overall it’s a great little hotel and I would definitely stay again. That said I think there should probably be a refund available if you are subject to weather delays on the ferry/airlines as our inbound and outbound trip was delayed by a day at both ends so we lost a nights accommodation and then felt we had to find alternative accommodation for the extra night which was a shame. That said it’s a lovely little hotel in a great spot and well worth a stay.

The rooms, as stated, are very dated and extremely noisy. The noise heard from our room was from the kitchen and our friends noisy room was from neighbouring room. The food in the restaurant is excellent, but expensive, the restaurant staff as well as cleaners were very friendly. The hotel reception staff are very unhelpful. Expedia state to vacate the room by noon the hotel did not accept this, even with proof, you have to vacate by 10.30 am. The location of the hotel is good, food excellent but I would not recommend staying here longer than a few days.

Perfect place for a relaxing escape

A clean, friendly and comfortable hotel in a beautiful setting. Delicious, generous breakfast with plenty of choice. Excellent restaurant with proper service. Lots of interest right on the doorstep including the amazing castle and hotel is a stone's throw from the bus stop which gives you access to the whole island. Pub next door is a good place for a relaxed sundowner after a coastal hike or a day out.
