We stayed for a week at this hotel and loved pretty much everything about this hotel and the staff. This is a beautiful hotel with lots of old world charm. It has a few creaky floorboards but that didn’t distract from our stay in any way. We stayed in 2 standard twin rooms which were of a good size and very clean. Beds were very comfortable. One of our family needed accessible bathroom and this was of a good size to allow easy wheelchair access and manoeuvrability. A choice of shower chair or stool was available for this room. The helpful and pleasant staff made our stay very relaxing. We booked the half board deal and found this to be a big plus. We could choose from the either the bar or the restaurant menu for dinner, with an allowance of up to £35 pp. The food from either menu was absolutely delicious and we think the AA rosettes are well deserved. To add to the pleasure of our dining experience, the hotel provided live music on three evenings. We really enjoyed this and especially the harp music. We looked forward to every meal and were never disappointed by the food. We did have one evening where the wait for food became very long. We had gone in to eat around 8 and we were still waiting for any sign of a main course after 9.

We looked forward to every meal and were never disappointed by the food. We did have one evening where the wait for food became very long. We had gone in to eat around 8 and we were still waiting for any sign of a main course after 9. We noticed that someone, who appeared to be connected with the hotel, came in some time after us and was on dessert before we had our main. This was the only real negative of our stay, but when the food came it was delicious as always. Breakfast was buffet style and again this was good. There was an extensive. Choice of hot and cold food and drinks.
We did have have trouble getting the self serve toaster to make a decent slice of toast but staff were very happy to make some for us in the kitchen when asked. I think maybe a new toaster is needed for use by the guests.
We tried the afternoon tea which was also delicious with a good selection of sandwiches and cakes. It was lovely to watch the waves through the window as we tucked into this.
The hotel has a swimming pool and gym which we did not use during this stay. These had to be booked in advance. Although there is a lift to the pool and gym, the pool is not really accessible to wheelchair users. We had hoped to use the pool but the walkways at the side of the pool are extremely narrow ( not wide enough for our wheelchair ) and there is no pool hoist is available. Overall we loved our stay here and would definitely recommend a stay here to relax and recharge your batteries.More
