Glad I went.

Liked: Jo was professional, interesting. Also a really good cook (fresh croissants, Egg Royale with really nice salmon).The room was warm, shower clean & worked well.There was wifi details on the laminated welcome sheet in bedroom, though I just used my normal phone line.One thing I liked were paintings in my room, mainly of local things. The art wasn't 'loud' though. Pleasant to look at. Art & interesting things were dotted all over the hotel, & in the restaurant.
Disliked: nothing really.

Comfortable and friendly hotel

Liked: The room was fantastic... very comfortable and well equipped. Spacious with lovely sea views. Breakfast was excellent...good ingredients and choice. The setting was very charming with all the Christmas bits and bobs! Our host was very friendly and accomodating. The hotel is a credit to her!
Disliked: No negatives...just be aware that as there is no parking at the hotel then planning in advance is advised if travelling by car. We managed to park on the road near the seafront for free.

Ideal central location

Liked: Excellent view and location. Staff very friendly and helpful. Generous sized room. Short stroll to the harbour and the town centre. Great pubs nearby. Car park conveniently close (250 m walk) - however could be full in high season.
Disliked: A little more heating in the room ( probably only a winter issue). Possibly one extra chair to throw your clothes over.
