Wonderful Stay by the Sea

excellent breakfasttasteful refurbishmentlovely view
The breakfast was excellent, and it included a variety of options. I had smoked salmon with perfectly poached eggs. cereal and toast. The room was recently refurbished in a tasteful way. I enjoyed the beach view from the side of the building.
I noticed the car parking was off street, and it was uncertain if I could park outside the building.

Breakfast is a real highlight here. The staff prepares a fantastic full Scottish breakfast, and vegan options are available. They had oat milk for my tea too, a welcome touch. There are many good selections offered.
