This hotel was excellent and so clean and beautifully furnished. You can tell it is owned by an expert designer. Food rooms service. Impeccable. 10/10.

Really nice pub-hotel with decent rooms. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was fantastic. We stayed 1 night whilst walking the coastal path - it was perfect for that.

We enjoyed our short stay. Very helpful friendly staff. A comfortable clean room but a bit cluttered and in need of some coat hooks A really good choice of breakfasts and comprehensive menu..

Pleasant little pub with plain, small but comfortable rooms, in a lovely seaside village. BUT: big disadvantage: breafast is not served until 8.30am, far too late for energetic holidaymakers and busy people staying in the area. When I complained of this in a review the management said that they could have made me a sandwich the night before, but this rather inferior service was not offered at the time.

Everything was satisfactory, staff friendly and welcoming. One thing that surprised me was that breakfast is not served until 0830am, I had to be somewhere at 9am so no good for me.

A pleasant pub with lots of rooms in a beautiful seaside fishing village, helpful staff, reasonable pub food, so plenty to recommend it -- except: no breakfast available until 8.30am! For busy people and holiday makers who want to make the best of their day, this is hopeless, and shows that the pub is trying to cut corners by not getting staff in to prepare breakfast at a sensible time. I need to visit the area frequently and would like to use the Dolphin again, but I'm afraid that not making breakfast available at a reasonable time is enough to rule it out for me in future.
