Very clean but dated bedroom & bathroom. Breakfast ok. Parking excellent & proximity to town/beach/pier great. Lovely staff. Had a sea view room with balcony in the Lodge which was ok but not somewhere we'd wa t to stay again. In need of sunstantial refurbishment but has amazing potential.

Hotel could be beautiful but room was cold windows rattling in the wind kept me awake breakfast poor but advertised as continental so can’t say to much. No food although you can get a takeaway and bring it back but after a long drive did not really want to go out. Seems lot of cost cutting which Is a shame
