Charming hotel right by the beach, quite possibly the best vegan breakfast I have had ... thank you so much for lift to quarry caves too! Be aware very difficult to have meal out here as only 2 places and always booked in advance ... fish and chip shop is doing a roaring trade at the moment, great chips and great beach to eat them on!

Stayed for three nights wish it could have been longer. The staff were friendly helpful. The room was clean and comfortable, loved sitting at the window and watching the world go by on the beach. The breakfasts were superb only problem was deciding what to have. Would certainly stay again.

Friendly and cozy atmosphere and beautiful view across the beach. The tea was a little average as was the scone but the jam and cream were lovely. Reasonable prices and sensible Covid guidance.
Loos are not available inside - you need to use the public ones up the path.
