Very convenient and clean (although slight damp smell throughout) and staff were lovely! This is a pretty basic hotel though - room large with comfy bed but warm - and if you don't have a room in the hotel itself you are nowhere near the sea - wasn't a problem for us. It's a very busy locals pub though which we were good with but not a tranquil seaside stay. And parking is tricky as need to top up at the off-site carpark at 8am each day. Good breakfast tho!

So if you book a room with a sea view then it’s best not to expect an early night .. especially at the weekend. And if the sun is out .. lots of traffic and people sat outside playing classic old school bangers along with the latest hits. The room has what you need. Kettle milk tea n coffee. The staff are brilliant. And you get a tasty breakfast in the morning.its close to the beach and local attractions.. would I stay again.. I think I would yeah ..
