  • "Relaxed glamour by the sea"
    fantastic location, food, décor, spa, everything! A very special place to visit. The attached Village pub is brilliant, all the staff are attentive and the Christmas décor was amazing. The spa is beautiful and we had a wonderful balcony room. Even having water and fresh milk in the fridge is such a nice touch. Every room had a wreath on the door and a Christmas Tree inside - so much effort.
