The Cliff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel with lots of history! The room was very clean and well equipped for a weekend stay. The breakfast was excellent and cooked fresh to order. "

The White Horse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable room with excellent tea making supplies - and a good sized mug each! The floor fan was useful as it was very warm. The hotel kindly allowed a later check out with a prompt and polite response to our request. Check in was efficient and simple. The evening meal was superb - great value and the pavlova! Wow! Chef’s kiss! All in all - a beautiful historic building and a really enjoyable stay. We will return I am sure. "
