“Great Hotel Fantastic Views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2011

people found this review helpful

Went with National Holidays, Superb five day trip would recommend it , Alan our driver couldn't do enough, and his knowledge about the area made up a great deal of the enjoyment of the trip. But back to the hotel we arrive about 8-30 pm a full three meal was waiting for us our bags were in our room by the time we had finished our meal. Through out our stay the staff were totally helpful always with a smile.We had a room with a sea facing balcony and the view was fantastic. Would defiantly stay again.

“golf trip”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

people found this review helpful

we screwed up our hotel plans and arraved here hopeing to find a room. They were wonderful to us. They had a nice pub. They made special arrangments for our 6am early breakfast (normaly they serve at 830am) to ensure we would make our golf time. They were so nice and it is only a few minutes to the course. The coastal view accross the streat was quite stunning.
