"Second stay. Room was fine for 4 of us. Staff always pleasant and helpful. Kids outdoor play area is small but private so you can have a drink and keep an eye on the little ones at the same time. Free parking. Drinks are reasonable for a pub chain. Didn’t have chance to try the pub menu, we would stay again as it’s 5 minutes from the main centre and harbour area"

"We stayed in the two bedroom self catering apartment for 3 nights. Found it really comfortable, lovely views from the lounge onto the beach and of the harbour. Lots of nice features in the apartment, comfy furniture and beds, everything was spotless. Was a little anxious about parking before arriving, but got parked outside on the road without issue which was free. Will certainly stay at this place again. It’s also very close to one of the cliff lifts if you have need of it or are simply tired from a long day to get back up from the prom."
