Really friendly and helpful owner and staff. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable. Only stayed the night so didn't spend much time there. A little cramped in the deluxe room.

Loved the Turkish egg breakfast. Would have loved a tall mirror in the bedroom.

Okay room.
The room was nice however i thought it was strange as it stated that on my check in email that we had been upgraded and when we got to the room, it was at the rear of the building an ok size however no where to put any clothes so everything had to stay in the case. View was onto a brick wall. Not sure what we were upgraded from. Would have been better if breakfast was an option and also somewhere to grab a drink and something to eat etc on an evening instead of having to travel for miles out.

Standard bed was only an ordinary double and the first night I fell out of bed twice and cut my head on side of table. There was no breakfast until 10am and not much of food available or choice. Nearest cafe was a mile or so away.

This was a straightforward overnight stay and we were quite happy with it - it did the job. Two improvements suggested are 1.. to provide an ordinary upright chair in the room. There was nothing to sit on apart from the bed and 2. I think it was overpriced without any breakfast at all included.
It was a nice room . comfortable bed and very clean. All good.

Room was smallish, with a cupboard with shelves but no hanging space. No surfaces to place any belongings (make-up etc.) Extremely small shower room, with an inconvenient shelf above the small sink, which had a crack in it. The road was busy and noisy. The room door required muscles to push or pull it open as the closer has been set incorrectly. The stairs and landing have been set up for easy cleaning, but, will need carpet to be less noisy. Sea view? Top road exit has limited view - signage!

Breakfast is not served before 10 am, so too late for us , and the restaurant was not open in the evening , but I’m sure it will be sorted out soon , it’s all new.

Very good stay, clean, comfortable, in a good location close to South west coast path. We would have liked to have breakfast but 10am was too late for us.

Very friendly staff, exceptionally clean,cozy and modern room. Nice fluffy towels and soft bed sheets. Lovely and quiet.
Breakfast doesn’t start until 10:00 which was inconvenient as we like to get an early start. Watch yourself on the driveway, it’s very uneven.
