The hotel has an air of faded glory about it, but to be fair, I was there in the shoulder season during a big storm, so perhaps I didn't see it at its best. I was especially hoping to take advantage of the big veranda, but with 75 mph winds, that was not an option! The high ceilings do kind of beg for more people so it doesn't feel rather tomb-like... The somewhat dated room was fine, but I was disappointed that the window didn't open at all because it was a little warm for my comfort. Even with fewer guests, they expect dinner to be reserved, and while I just had a very good soup, others seemed to enjoy their somewhat expensive main dishes and desserts. The breakfast was very average full-English fare. The location on the hill is not what I'd call "walkable", but in exchange you do get great views. Most of the staff was quite nice, with the exception of a somewhat grumpy bartender.

Nice location, seemed short staffed

Had to ask for milk and plates at breakfast, limited selection, coffee not great. Our sea view was a tiny window and in the eaves of building as was windy in evening had disturbed sleep from roof rattling.

Not worth what they charge

Parking charge is a joke. Can park anywhere else in the area for free. They charge £6.50 per day so our overnight stay cost £16 as the site you need to use charge a service charge. We arrived at 6pm and left next morning at 11am. They are severely short staffed which made breakfast a very disappointing experience. Had to search for cutlery, take condiments off other tables, queue for plates and also queue and a lengthy wait for food to be replenished and it was only 9am. We had a superior room with sea view with a very impressive large window. Down side to this original feature was the wind howled through all night. The bed was comfortable and room was clean. Can’t say the same about all the tables in restaurant as there wasn’t enough staff to keep on top of it. Many guests were saying the same. We weren’t asked how our stay was at check out or I would have fed these observations back. On our arrival home, I contacted the hotel via 2 different platforms and we are oe on day 4 and still no response. Definitely not worth the money or the stress at breakfast.

Too hot in the room on a warm day

This was my second visit during the week to this hotel, the first stay was in a premium double room and then this stay was in a more budget single room, it was a warm summers day. I opened the room to be hit by the heat coming from the bathroom, sadly the bathroom window handle was broken and could not be opened, the bathroom also had a large hot water pipe along the wall that was not insulated, thus it just radiated heat into the room, I think this was the mains supply for the entire floor. The only other window in the bedroom could only be opened by a couple of centimetres, so not great for a warm night.
