We were in an apartment. It was well equipped. The location was very good, and there were sea views. The only issue was the stairs both from the street and inside the apartment. However, this is clearly pointed out when booking in reviews, and there is obviously nothing that can be done about it.

Lovely stay, nice friendly staff, had a lovely evening meal and breakfast was also lovely, room was very nice, bed very comfy, just a couple of niggles, room was very warm so had to turn the radiator off and would of loved a couple of coat hooks to hang our coats when wet. Other than that would definitely stay again. See you soon. 😊

Our stay was amazing. Full facilities in a gorgeously decorated room. Quiet, clean and everything we need. Friendly staff who went out of there way to meet any of our needs and a full English breakfast to die for. Will definitely stay again and highly recommend anyone else staying. Thank you for a great stay

Great location steep stairs however
Lovely spot and good facilities in the pub for food drinks and watching sports. The accommodation was good but the stairs very narrow and steep but part of the charm I guess. Bathroom not great ceiling height and for anyone 6’plus and dodgy knees hips etc the stairs can take its toll. Staff very friendly and location convenient for everything. Great view and access to harbour.
