My wife and I stayed only one night, but we wish we’d had more time to enjoy the area and hotel. Kim checked us in, and she answered every question and took care of every need without trouble or delay. For the rate we paid, my wife and I agreed this was the best place we stayed on our 2 week journey around the southern UK. Access to the water, a nice walk to Land’s End, convenient breakfast and pub food, and complimentary coffee, tea, and round of lager were some highlights of our single day staying here.

Nice location as opposite the beach parking not on site but in Pay & display car park next door. Booked a premium room with sea views but view obstructed by scaffolding but was due to be dismantled soon. Room was nice but not exactly spotless as very dusty especially on drinks tray & lights, TV. Also Shower screen damaged and bathroom blind broken. With a little more care and attention & TLC checks before check in, the hotel could be really nice as fantastic location, especially in the summer for drinks.
