lovely visit
friendly stafffree parkingbread shortage
i received a voucher as a gift and chose this hotel. the staff was friendly upon my arrival, a good start. the food was delicious with good value (i especially enjoyed the sea bass). free parking was a bonus.
on one morning, i ordered smoked salmon with scrambled eggs. i was informed they had run out of granary bread and only had white bread. this was disappointing as i like a good start to the day.

breakfast had much variety to choose from, catering for all needs. i was pleased (i really was!). dinner service offered a well-stocked menu, with prawns in garlic butter. the menu seemed to cater to everyone.

The hotel and room were clean and sufficient in amenities. daily house keeping was included. Most hotels do not do this daily. the big bed in my room was perfect after a long day.

my darling and i recently enjoyed several nights at the hotel, a gift. i found the room wonderfully clean and tastefully decorated. we particularly enjoyed the restaurant's culinary offerings and the friendly staff. the sea view was amazing, especially from our room.
the only slight inconvenience was the limited availability of certain items on the breakfast menu one morning. i desired a specific bread type, but it was not available.
