On arrival found hotel to be uninviting, cold and shabby in appearance. Evening carvery was abysmal, vegetables seemed to be re-heated left-overs from lunchtime carvery. Bedroom was shabby, base of bed badly stained and old fashioned blankets on bed instead of a duvet. The bar area was very basic and freezing cold, the lounge was a continuation of the reception...

We chose this restaurant to meet up with relations who live abroad and who we hadn't seen for some time. We were met by a scowling waitress who obviously didnt want to be at work and certainly did not want the six of us there. There were only 3 tables so she wasn't overworked. The atmosphere was abysmal. The food... More

We arrived for our midday lunch booking at precisely 12 O’clock to be politely informed that the restaurant was not ready for us and to take a seat for a few minutes. We studied a worn and tatty menu that was on the reception table together with an equally tatty menu we found on the reception desk. True to their... More

Friendly helpful staff. New menu imaginative and good selection. Sixty covers on a weekday night speaks highly of its popularity with locals. Staff friendly cheerful and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our seven night stay.

This was our second visit to Dormy House a warm, clean, comfortable welcoming place to stay especially after a cold winter day out bird watching. The food is unpretentious but of good quality and freshly cooked with alternative options to the carvery available. Excellent breakfasts made to order. Staff are helpful and friendly. The January special offers made it very... More

Please ! what has happened to your renown carvery ,have you changed your chef if so change again

My husband and I booked into this hotel for the night as we'd come away for the weekend last minute. The receptionist was very friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable but dinner was a let down. The potatoes from the carvery were the worst I'd ever tasted (sure they had been reheated) and the other vegetables were not... More

Excellent service and value. We were nine exciteable 40-somethings using the dormy house as a base for a long hike along the coast. The staff handled us very professionally ('Tore' was especially friendly), the rooms very clean, and the breakfasts were a great start to the day. Great bar for early evening drinks, big car park, and 2 minutes walk... More

Booked into the Dormy House Hotel at short notice as we couldn't get a room anywhere else. Had eaten at the carvery a couple of years before and thought it would be reasonable. How wrong we were! The room on the first floor was spacious but in poor condition. The carpet was grubby up to a couple of inches from... More
