Breakfast was sometimes a bit manic but the staff and food were great in the main. Our only real gripe was that there were far too many dogs in the restaurant at breakfast, virtually every guest seemed to have one big and small! The only other gripe was that we had a room with a lovely sea view but we couldn’t see it very well because the windows were so dirty. Expensive for car parking £15 per night!
