Nice hotel but couldn’t leave window open in room and it was roasting. If you go take a small block of wood to keep sash window open. Staff were very friendly. Was a bit noisy as events were being held but room was quiet. Good selection at breakfast and in bar n the little coffee shop was nice.

A fabulous location overlooking the cliffs. The majority of the hotel has been modernised, with a luxuriant feel that includes an excellent bar. There are some stairwells and corridors that are yet to catch up that feel very tired and a little shabby in places, but it looked like work was in hand to sort this out. There is very limited parking to book and a small overflow that gives reasonable rates, but you'd need to arrive early to get a space. We opted for a non-sea view room and it was nicely decorated with a huge, comfortable bed and modern bathroom. The staff were superb in all areas, as was the breakfast.

The staff on check-in were very helpful and friendly. Parking was convenient. Our room 204 was large and very comfortable and warm with a fabulous view over the beach and Abbey. Nice breakfast room with an excellent variety and choice of food. Excellent position for reaching town easily. Really enjoyed our short stay.

This beautiful listed building is beautiful now into a 2nd year of a 5 year retorvation plan as i am told Our room was changed due to me being diabled Although it was spacious very clean with ensuite facilities it was very awkward to maneuver getting into the room as the door was very narrow and i had to take the foot steps off the wheel chair to swing in from the corridor. Once into the room the ensuite room was uneccesable with the wheelchair as them doors were even smaller . With having only one leg i found it awkard to get into the shower cubicle as it was about 6 inch high to take the waste pipes . I ended up sat on floor to shower . I do understand thing cannot be changed so easily in listed buildings without consent The bar was up to date and buzzing and the food in the restuarant was super good and also very busy .although had to overcome some steps to enter ,it maybe awkward to enter if totaly wheel chair bound for other people .so have some thought dissabled people when planning your eating requirements. Staff couldnt do enough for you in all parts of the hotel ,we had a great nights stay and will be staying again, once i get a little more mobile
