My partner and I had such a lovely stay here. The room was so lovely and modern and such great value for money. The staff were super easy to deal with and warm and welcoming, and the main strip and seaside are a very short walk away. Highly recommend!

The host Clare was very friendly and helpful - giving us a lovely drink and biscuits on arrival. The place was spotlessly clean with great facilities. The breakfast was lovely and delivered to our room. It is in a lovely location and near to many attractions.
