Pleasant stay at Grovefield Manor. Close to beach ~ 5 - 6 mins walk. Beautiful sandy beaches, clean and not crowded. Comfy beds and quiet area surrounding hotel. Breakfast good, no cooked breakfast but plenty of options including porridge, crumpets, muffins, cereals, fruit, yogurts, pastries. Very nice restaurant only a few doors away for dinner.

Room 14 was fantastic and we would happily stay again. We didnt see anything that warranted a low score and the breakfast was great, with a nice choice available. The hotel is just a stroll from the beach with good parking available. Thank you for a lovely couple of nights at your lovely hotel.

Breakfast disappointing

My husband was disappointed that they didn't offer a cooked breakfast. The room was clean and well presented. It did have a very noisy floor, squeaky.
