Wonderful hotel and room. Had a view over the sea. It was great to have dedicated parking. Food was nice, but rather expensive in both the main dining room and the conservatory.. would have preferred more comfort food choices in the latter. Staff friendly and helpful.

Nice cozy hotel with decent views

it’s a bit dated Propery but well maintained and clean. Staff and service was good and breakfast was nice. Rooms are well equipped although size felt a bit small in the one that we got. There is a nice garden and view of sea along with an open heated pool.
