"What an absolute gem - full of character, amazing staff, spacious, clean rooms, quality furnishings, delicious food, wonderful breakfast - is that enough superlatives?! The setting of this hotel is out of a picture book - I’m sure the smugglers came up the beach to drink at the pub!’"

"We arrived soaking wet and didn't get a friendly welcome from the receptionist . She just told us our rooms were in the cottages near the entrance and handed over the keys sayig all informaion was in our rooms.. No warmth at all... We found our rooms to be groundfloor quite nice and beds were comfortable.. Unfortunately, there was loud creaking overhead as the people moved around upstairs.. It was very noisy and seemed to go on for hours. Also the traffic noise from the busy road was awful! The breakfast was fairly basic but ok. We would not return.... "

"The staff on the bar the first night we stayed just didn't seem to want to be there. "

"Lovely castle. With great views! Room nice however Bathroom in room was a cupboard which let the room down. Breakfast was nice however overpriced for a limited selection, would be nice to have eggs royale for example. Also staff were very mixed on what was and wasn’t gluten free… a vegetarian breakfast was served instead. Not worth £17.50. "

"Amazing! If you are even considering booking here, do it! Everything from the accommodations, staff and food were top notch. 10 Stars!"

"I’m not saying my stay at this hotel was chaotic, but I’m fairly sure I experienced a full escape room challenge before I even got inside. On arrival, I wasn’t able to check in and was left standing outside for a solid 15 minutes, which really gave me time to reflect on my life choices—and the weather. Eventually, I made it in, only to discover that the bedroom door latch didn’t actually lock. No problem though, because the solution involved the staff member calling her husband, who arrived armed with a drill and screwdriver like some sort of emergency DIY superhero. Nothing says “relaxing stay” quite like impromptu home repairs. The excitement didn’t stop there. The shower flooded, turning the bathroom into a paddling pool (sadly, no inflatable included). The bedside lamp wasn’t charged either, so mood lighting was replaced with “sit in the dark and think about things.” And finally, breakfast. You’re asked to pre-order using a form—very organised in theory—except for the minor detail that no pen is provided. I can only assume interpretive dance is an acceptable alternative. All in all, it was less “hotel stay” and more “unexpected adventure weekend.” Would I return? Only if I needed material for a comedy routine."

"We had a really lovely short stay (2 nights). Excellent location overlooking the beach, delicious food both at breakfast and dinner. The staff were very helpful and cheerful. Comfortable clean rooms too. We’ll be back."

"Clean, nice staff, good brekkie, splendid view! "
