    A pleasant stay with my dog at this charming hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was fresh and varied. The pillows were a bit too firm for my taste. The scenic views definitely make up for it!

    delicious breakfast
    fine views
    firm mattress
    maintenance issues
    limited parking

    The breakfast offered a fantastic variety, especially the fresh ingredients, with standout poached eggs and a delicious full English option. The location provides fine sea views. The mattress was on the firmer side, which may not suit everyone's preference. While the room was generally pleasant, some minor maintenance could enhance comfort further. For those traveling with pets, the grassy area is a major plus.
