Not dog friendly.

Lovely location

− This hotel says it is dog friendly, It is not you can only sit in the small hot conservatory or your room ,you are not allowed in the sitting area my husband was asked to leave when he sat down for a moment with our little dog. This hotel is barely dog tolerant. Spoilt our holiday.

The location and the very helpful young lady member of staff who was juggling balls to look after everyone.

− We booked a room with kitchen facilities. We had a microwave, hob, fridge and dishwasher but no crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils. We booked for 3 adults and the third bed was missing in arrival. It was placed in the kitchen (very odd!). We booked 4 nights and the room was not serviced at all apart from the bins being emptied. We had to request toilet paper when it got low. No bottled water or glasses in the room. The terrace had dangerous uneven paving slabs and rusty railings. The gardens were uncared for with mismatched garden furniture that needed mending/cleaning. The common areas were strangely decorated with lots of dying plants and Christmas decorations (in July!!). The menus were very limited with lots of items ‘off’. There was a wine list but most items were either unavailable or horrendously expensive. No draught beers. Breakfast very limited having to choose night prior. They ran out of eggs one morning. The phrase ‘winging it’ comes to mind - utterly chaotic. The worst thing is the pricing. Massively overpriced for the room, the food and the drink. Such a shame as with a bit of organisation and a few tweaks thus could be amazing. I definitely would not recommend.

Hotel liegt direkt am Meer, und wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Meerblick. Das Bett war bequem und auch das Frühstück war gut. Was noch schön war, war der Wanderweg gleich in der Nähe mit tolle Aussichten aufs Meer.

− Ehrlich gesagt hatten wir das Gefühl,dass das Personal unorganisiert ist, teilweise sehr hektisch, was einen dann auch nervös macht. Und auch Unruhe verbreitet. Keine Ahnung warum es so war, denn das Hotel war normal ausgelastet. Der Zimmerboden hat leider laut geknarrt und man hat auch die anderen Gäste laut gehört, wenn sie immer gegangen sind.

The place in front of the sea.

− Simple rooms with old furniture. The ambiente in general was not nice.

Spectacular location & view Large comfortable room

− Decor & food options Building felt a little neglected - strange mix of Scottish & Asian style decor and food
