I didn't have breakfast but the evening meal was very good. Friendly and helpful staff. Varied menu. Good service. Unfortunately, the hotel could not find any evidence of my Expedia booking amd I had to pay a last minute, higher price, for the night.

Can't understand what's so prestigous about it, fairly average really. Location is awful, name misleading. Set by a landfill site. Restaurant ok. Bathroom was nice.
Stayed one night for work. Decent room rate and a huge room. Staff are great. Food in the restaurant is reasonably priced and very tasty. Hotel is remote so nothing else in the vicinity
There were lots of staff who were all lovely and our dog was made very welcome.
The food in the restaurant was simple but excellent quality and very good portions.
Overall a very easy and pleasant stay with good value for money.
There are some spectacular dog walks along the beach only a mile or so away.
The only criticism could be that the heating was turned up very high

Toilet broken so if flushed it kept trickling of water for ever. Had to lift lid to stop the water.

The room is to a decent standard. The bed is comfortable and there was a good choice of pillows. This is a really strong start as many hotels are let down in this area.
The bathroom was ok, nothing wrong and the shower water pressure was very good.
However, the room was way too warm making sleeping difficult. That’s a personal thing and would be fine in normal circumstances as the window could be opened to let fresh air in.
However, the rooms back on to where the bins are filled every evening by the staff, immediately waking you up if you managed to get to sleep.
And then, at 6.45am, every morning, a delivery arrives or the bin lorry turns up and wakes you up. Why this is considered acceptable is beyond me!
Fundamentally, this could be a decent hotel but it’s let down by things that, with a little care, would make things better.
I wouldn’t stop again
Lovely Hotel, we have 3 dogs and we have never been so impressed by the greeting for our dogs. The beds were confortable, the Staff were fantastic, couldent do enough for their guests and their dogs, the breakfast was very good, parking was very good. All in All a great one night stay,we will stay again.
I arrived on a motorcycle with the large carpark to choose from and found a little out of view corner to leave the bike over night and because the hotel appears isolated i wasn't bother about security too much. One enters the hotel through two automatic sliding doors which is a bonus when carrying bags and crash helmets. The first door opens in to a cosy vestibule with seating around a rather modern teardrop shaped lig burner that appears to drip from the ceiling, it would be a wonderful place to sit on cold evening. After signing in by friendly welcoming staff I found my room negotiating my way up the stairs and along the deep pile carpeted corridor to my room.
The hotel was quiet and very comfortable and I had a great nights sleep.

Ideal location, good views and some nice walks...bedroom ok, on seocnd floor but bed was very uncomfortable. Minimal sleep.. staff, when asked about it, knew the beds uncomfortable. Good price in those in town twoce price if not more.
The property was clean, in a lovely location and the staff welcoming, If I had to comment it would be that there was no hand towels and only 1 drinking glass in the room and the rooms were not sound proof in any way. Saying that we did enjoy our stay, it provided a perfect base for us.
Attended for a wedding was lovely location and convenient for travel.
Only issues with room was location was noisy-close to reception, and no blinds at windows so had to keep curtains closed for privacy- staff access
Excellent property Staff are so obliging and friendly Great place for our small dog Staff couldn’t do enough Food great Room very comfortable Proprty in general a bit tired but we will be revisiting

Everything was good until we went down for breakfast. We didn't have much choice (although we went down about 9 am). They didn't have enough staff. Poor lady had to run around to top up the juice or the eggs.
