A very different experience
We stayed here before and had a fantastic experience. Sadly, rather disappointing this time. We booked a delux room which on entering had opaque film covering the lower half of the windows which instanty made me suspicious. It was an attempt to block views of the bins, road and the caravan park next door. Our room was at the side of the hotel. We expected a partial sea view, but not the rest. With the hotel being so quiet we would have expected a better room positioning. We were shocked to find that simeone had clearly used our loo. There was urine & loo roll in it! The bar, restaurant area was very cold with only embers glowing in the log burner. Another client was sitting with his puffa jacket on. We asked if they could stoke the fire, however we were told it hadn't been on for 2 days and there was no kindling! It had been on. They then turned up the heating. The open kitchen in the bar area was noisy. Music playing in the bar clashed with the music being played in the kitchen. A large collection of cutlery was being dried and dropped into the cutlery holder behind us, it was ridiculously loud! We thought it would never stop. A very different experince from the beautiful room and comfort of our last visit.

The location is fabulous, right on the sea front. Plenty outdoor seating which was welcome in the hot, sunny weather we had. As someone who follows a gluten-free diet almost every dish on the menu had a GF option available which is quite unusual. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and clean.
