I enjoyed the excellent food at both breakfast and dinner. the owner, alun, was very friendly and helpful. the staff were lovely. I found the overall experience to be admirable. the location is also very nice. It is right by the beach. but, it's very hilly though the views are lovely.
The bar opens directly onto the street, and it had a small, loud crowd gathered at the front. There was no one at the back except for pool players.

The hotel features a bar that has a good choice of well-kept beers with cheerful staff running it. there's a restaurant that gets busy. It's advisable to book ahead due to its popularity. free parking is available in the nearby national trust car park, facilitated by a voucher provided by the hotel, and it is only a 3-minute walk away.
