The Beach House

The Beach House

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice stay from start to finish. Large free car parking, check in was very fast and friendly and we were shown to our room which was cosy but perfect for 1 night. The bed was comfortable, the room very clean with lovely toiletries and plenty of tea and coffee. We even had a fantastic view of The Needles. The property itself was beautiful, breakfast was great and all the staff were warm and professional. We will certainly stay here again!"
