After a day on the beach we were so pleased to arrive at this gorgeous gastro pub with rooms. Beautiful, and comfortable rooms with lovely style and welcoming touches, and our dog was welcomed happily and given her own bed and there was even a dog shower area outside. Dinner outside was delicious and a great breakfast menu too, traditional and healthy options also. Thoroughly recommend and hope to come back.

A few things to consider

A lovely place overall. My room was very comfortable and It had everything I needed. (the photos don't do ut justice) There were lots of small touches that were thoughtful. The staff were friendly and very professional. A few negatives: It is by a very busy road so okay if you need to be up early! The outdoor seats and tables could be kept cleaner. There was a rat on it's way to the kitchen bins when I sat outside in the evening and the pub toilets seem much loved by flies. completely understand its in a rural location but... An earlier breakfast would be really helpful for business travellers. Unfortunately for this reason I will probably need to book elsewhere next time (They do offer 'breakfast on the go' as an option). The food looked lovely but were beyond my budget with a top price of £110 for the chefs special. Lots to recommend this venue but a few things to consider.

We really enjoyed our stay, everyone was friendly, helpful, super accommodating and in particular with it being dog friendly we never felt like we were being a nuisance with the dog. It is the first time that I have eaten out with the dog and not felt on edge, worried that she is in the way or making someone else feel uncomfortable.

I found the staff welcoming and very friendly. I enjoyed my evening meal and breakfast. The room was very nice and I really enjoyed the deep bath. I did not like the bright green light that came from a box mounted on the ceiling. It was very bright and I had to arrange my pillows in such a way to block it out in order to sleep. I prefer a darker room to sleep in. Apart from that everything was lovely.
