Excellent- great location , comfortable well equipped spacious room, lovely building and areas. Great food and service in the restaurant. Caring and helpful staff throughout.
Lovely old English hotel with lots of original features. rooms a little dated, but for the price were perfectly fine. good location just at the end of the high street, we walked down the high street and down to the beach past the pier, then back into the town for evening meal.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Room was smaller than our usual one and also had mugs half full of coffee missed by the cleaners.
The place was lovely and went beyond expectations! The staff were all polite and friendly and went out of their way to bring a room service call(i believe his name was Alfie) nothing was too much for him and he was super polite and efficient for all the time we wrre there.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Friendly staff, but room was decor looking tired and with no heating in room.
Staff very welcoming. Felt very safe as a single lady on their own. The Shops were very close and the seafront was in walking distance. Next to the railway station and easy to find.
