"Nice hotel. All the facilities needed. Short drive to the beach and I’m sure there were plenty of cycle routes also. Main hotel lacked any real atmosphere, people tended to stay out during the day and then go to their rooms. Outside bar was deserted and looked closed. Pool was lovely."

"The pool was lovely . There are several restaurants within easy walking distance. Disliked the number of rules at the property -for instance you cannot have your own food and drinks on terrace/ in room yet they sell no food and only a minimal drink selection. The shower needs to be hooked up as holding it in your hand to shower in 2022 really isn’t acceptable . Rooms need updating . "
