"We had a very warm welcome from Fiona on reception. She was so helpful throughout our stay. My husband had a problem with his ankle so the walk into town bit of a struggle for him. We hadn’t realised it was about a 30 minute walk into town. Fiona was an absolute gem and even dropped us to the station for our train journey. We were in room 15 and it was an odd shape so didn’t have much room to move around once you got your luggage inside. Kitchen facility was good but no where to eat your food...

The only thing that let it down for us is that the unit we had was an upstairs one fronting the road and was very noisy - especially with trucks traveling up and down the road all through the night (and some inconsiderate drivers using their engine brakes)."

It not only provided more spacious accommodation but we really enjoyed using the private deck with sea views. New owners John & Deb very friendly and welcoming, so we hope to return in the near future. "
