Do not book here. It is closed and no one there. The owner has disappeared. I have reported to hotels.com and they need to be removed. I could not access and hotel was in darkness. Eventually got a refund but took ages to sort ! Avoid at all costs
Lovely place to stay, comfortable beds, warm rooms, hot shower, fresh towels and great hosts, all round a lovely hotel to get some rest when needed, close to beach, lovely sea views.
Just spent weekend at gable end hotel with my brother.
Great stay. Friendly staff and the owner Justin couldn’t do enough for us fantastic guy .looking forward to going back
Later in the year. Won’t get a friendlier place to stay.
When I reserved a room, I was not informed that the hotel was closed, I paid.I arrived and was told on the spot that the hotel was not working, so I had to look for another hotel.
Staff friendly and helpful. Well situated for a stroll along the prom and only a 15-20 minute walk into the centre of town. Breakfast good and well organised. A very pleasant stay.
The host was outstanding he couldn't do enough for us the hotel was undergoing some renovations but it was very comfortable and in the quiet side of town
This hotel is just absolutely Horrible. Never stay there Never book there. Hotel is advertised on Expedia website as open But is Closed. Has been closed for 3 weeks +
They take Bookings & your £ But No Service
They are advertising to take Bookings for NY
Was booked to stay there for 10 nights over Xmas & immediately had to find other accommodation upon arrival of being locked out. Submitted Police Report
Lovely owner nothing to much made our stay special amazing sea and waterway view from our room very tasty breakfast and good service from staff
We look forward to returning
