My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here. We reserved a Deluxe Double Sea View Room with Balcony (room 5) and were not disappointed. The bed was very comfortable, the balcony a great size (large enough for two loungers and two chairs0 and the view was stunning. It was a bit overcast when we arrived so we made use of the excellent indoor pool and jacuzzi (we had it all to ourselves). You can get to the beach directly from the hotel garden and it's a very quiet beach with lovely sand and decent surf. The hotel staff were very attentive and welcoming and the food (dinner and breakfast) was very good. All in all, a really enjoyable stay and we would have no hesitation in recommending it based on our experience.

Fabulous location! Room had amazing sea view with floor to ceiling bay window so you could sit in bed looking out over to Woolacoombe. Food was fantastic, breakfast and Bistro. Did not try the fine dining as just not our thing. Weather was lovely so we had all our meals on the terrace. Sun beds on the lawn were very comfortable, perhaps could do with a couple more as it’s such a great spot. Spent an afternoon at Coombesgate beach which is next to hotel and much quieter than Woolacoombe or barricane. Definitely take the walk out to morte point… stunning!! A real treat for us, our second break here and we cannot wait to go back. Oh… did I mention the sunsets!?!

The hotel is beautiful, sat overlooking the water. The dining room offers glorious views, and the dinner and breakfast were very good. The service was amazing, effective and friendly, from the receptionist to the restaurant staff. The room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. The indoor swimming pool was very nice for a morning dip- good water temperature. I wholeheartedly recommend this stunning hotel.

Lovely location , lovely food . Poor service in restaurant , possibly not enough staff. Indoor pool freezing 26/27 outdoor pool only warm if sun remains out with no wind . Slight warm jets go into it on a timer . Apparently both pools are better heated in 6 weeks summer hols.

Excellent service by Sarah on reception who provided us with an upgrade. Lovely room. Nice swimming pool (to ourselves) & steam room. Evening meal in the bistro was first class - the meal was excellent. The overall hotel facilities couldn’t have been better. This review sounds a bit ‘gushy’ but all I can say is that we both had a wonderful stay!

Fabulous hotel with the most amazing sea views. The staff are super friendly, helpful & respectful. We have stayed in the supine room previous & this time at the back of the hotel as they are the cheaper rooms. Very comfortable nevertheless. We made the most of the sun terrace as it was beautiful weather. The breakfast is lovely as are the views from the restaurant. We highly recommend this hotel.

We enjoyed our stay very much and the Staff were kind and obliging. As I am a little disabled found it very difficult in the Shower as nothing to hold on to and also outside the lift on the 1st floor the two steps to the right would be much easier with a hand rail. Views superb, and very warm and comfortable. Lovely Break.

The only thing we found challenging was that the menu for the evening meals didn't change. After two nights, we were lucky that a BBQ had been organised so we could order that for a change. Unfortunately, the BBQ finished at 5pm which was rather early for an evening meal.
