Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently appreciate the spacious family and superior rooms, often mentioning the large beds, comfortable armchairs, and the convenience of having a mini-fridge along with tea and coffee facilities, including fresh milk. The ample, good-quality towels are another frequently highlighted plus. Its location is ideal for beach access, with the pier and town centre within easy walking distance; some guests have, however, noted that the exterior could benefit from some tidying. The freshly cooked breakfast is generally considered excellent, providing a great start to the day.

Spacious Room and Great Breakfast!

spacious roomhelpful ownerfreshly cooked breakfast
I found the room very spacious. It included both a bath and a shower. The owner greeted me in the parking area and helped me with my bags. Breakfast was lovely! I particularly enjoyed the good, freshly cooked hot breakfast.
The dining room needs redecorating.
