St Hildas Boutique

10/10 Excellent
"One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. It was our first child free few days away for a few years. Debbie checked us in and was fantastic and gave us some great pointers of where to eat out on our first night. We chose the Ellerby Country Inn( was fantastic). The room was immaculate and the bed was so comfy. The staff were all friendly and if you passed by them, they would ask if we needed anything or had a nice day. The featured rooms were brilliant. We stayed in Venice, with a bed shaped like a boat and a huge spa bath. Everything was spot on and more! Breakfast was included, with lots to choose from. We would definitely stay here again. Keep being amazing St.Hilda's Boutique."

Grand Villa Heights

Grand Villa Heights

8/10 Good
"A staff member advised that the hotel is focused on catering to venues. A wedding was being held when we were staying. We were advised by the hotel in advance but after booking through Expedia. The best parts of the hotel are reserved for the event leaving hotel guests not part of the event to be catered for in poorer situated parts. On the plus side, the hotel is situated in a stunning location but being on the coast the wind howled outside the room. The overwhelming impression is that guests not part of a function are a necessary afterthought."

Brockley Hall Hotel

Brockley Hall Hotel

8/10 Good
"The decor is over the top kitch with lots of black, purple and silver so it won't be to everyone's taste. The larger rooms in the old part of the property are poorly lit and have free standing baths which take up loads of space while the actual bathroom is cramped but they have plenty of seating and big windows. I also like that the beds are low rather than the high ones that have become the fashion. The food is really good, both at breakfast and at dinner and the staff are friendly and helpful. They tend to have intrusive and unneccessary music playing which is a shame but it's the same almost everywhere one goes"
