The property location is excellent in 7 acres of grounds leading down to the seafront. The food is good but we stayed 2 weeks and there wasn't that many choices for that length of stay. The matress on my bed had seen better days and metal was not padded in places, my back was aching into the second week ,I found an extra blanket and folded that to cover the metal on the mattress and also slept on top of the quilt. I hope they renew the mattresses soon because although some other areas could do with a bit of a spruce up its the only thing that really let it down. There was a stool that hadn't been used for some while that was covered in dust. The staff really make the place a good place to stay once the mattresses are sorted though. It was our second visit so obviously ok the first time.

Fantastic staff on a hot weekend

On a very hot weekend we were allocated a room on the top floor next to the kitchen extractor fan. We, and especially our dog, could not have slept in the very high temperature. The staff were extremely accommodating and despite the hotel being very busy, we were moved to another cooler and less smelly room. The hotel is lovely and the grounds are amazing. We've visited a few times and they are steadily updating the hotel and the lovely swimming pool is now open again. There's an element of faded glory that they are trying to address and the hotel has a lot going for it.

Mixed Feelings

Hotel was clean but room was basic, two dirty cups, no shower gel or towels and low pressure in shower. Breakfast was served under heat lights which dried it out. However on the plus side you could order eggs etc and the staff were very helpful. The gardens were beautiful

The property was very tired and needed a complete overhaul. The staff were generally friendly, the exception was a lady who told us we couldn’t order from the main bar and had to use the bar set up for the wedding. The problem being the wedding bar was cash only, cans and bottles only, and everything sold was written down manually. The grounds are absolutely stunning and definitely perfect for a wedding. Breakfast was plentiful and nice.

The grounds around the property are fantastic and the location of the hotel is perfect. The beach and town are only a short walk away. The hotel itself needs updating. The room was a great size but it wasn’t very clean and the bed was so uncomfortable. It would be good to have a mini fridge in the room. I knew the hotel was pet friendly but I had no idea there would be so many dogs and that they would be allowed in the dining areas. Overall the grounds and outside facilities are great but the inside lets it down.

The first issue was the toilet roll, it was not new and had a brown stain, which were not sure what it was. Second issue was the cleanliness of the room, dust on all the surfaces when we arrived and still there after two days. Last issue was that unknown to us we should have had canned water and biscuits each day, none arrived until the last day. The staff are helpful, but the whole place is jaded and requires refurbishment. Was obviously a very nice hotel once. It has a swimming pool which is probably the best part. The walk through the well tended grounds down to the beach is great. At £140 a night its too expensive.
