Stayed one night (Sunday of bank holiday) with my wife after riding down from near Bournemouth for the bike festival. Welcoming, efficient owner soon had us checked in, our room was on second (top) floor with sea view literally across the road. Our room was large with a double bed, two singles, built in wardrobe, various chests of drawers and... More

Clean, comfortable beds, staff friendly and helpful. When I googled it before going could not understand why only 2 star, now I can. We were lucky in getting a front room so had fabulous views and did know about the railway line at the back. Others in the party who got that mostly were ok, but there were 2 rooms... More

Stayed here with a coach party from February 25th to March 1st. The hotel was spotlessly clean, warm and welcoming and staff were very friendly, helpful and professional. We had a huge room with a huge bathroom which was great as my husband is disabled, so he had plenty of room to move around. The room overlooked the railway line,... More

The position of this hotel was fine for us, but that was all it had going for it. Our room overlooked the train track at the back of the hotel. Breakfast was rushed and was like a military operation. If you wanted sauce with your breakfast, you had to ask, and the waitress would dig deep into her apron pocket... More
