Nice pub, no parking. Evening meal booked up!
Lovely place by the water. We asked to stay for dinner but told could only do 5.45 which was just as we arrived and we wanted to eat later. Tables free all evening but told they could only feed so many people every 15 mins. Surely 2 residents could have been fed???!!! Very disappointing. Room so light we didn’t sleep. Fantastic bathroom. Had to park overnight in a pay snd display as no parking which wasn’t mentioned on booking. Delicious breakfast.

What a find!
We have just enjoyed a 2-night break in the Deluxe Junior Suite and really can't fault this accommodation. The suite itself is stylish comfortable and pristine. Our room had a balcony where we could watch the tide come in, reaching right under the balcony. This is a really lovely place to relax and watch the boats on the water. The breakfasts were tasty and generous and dinner excellent. The staff were cheerful and keen to make sure we had all we needed to enjoy our stay.
