Fantastic view from conservatory lounge. I had 3 very comfortable nights - single room ( but no sea view). Booked via Shearings. Good value for money as it was D/B/B. Found staff helpful, flexible, & co-operative. Interior decor & furnishings basic. Old fashioned feel re carpets but it did not spoil my stay.

Hotel clean and comfortable. Food good. Staff lovely especially receptionist Belinda who goes out-of her way to accommodate you. Fantastic views if you are lucky enough to have a Seaview. I visit 2 or 3 times a year.

While the hotel is in need of refurbishment the quality of the food and service was very good indeed. Choices to please every palate. The location of the hotel makes this an ideal place to explore the nearby islands.
