    Located right by the Esplanade and close to the shops, so it's convenient to pop out for a stroll or a bit of shopping. You can also easily walk to the town center from here. It's a really nice spot to spend time during the winter months - cozy vibes all around! ❄️

    Great location, just a short walk from the town center. the staff here are super helpful and friendly - they went above and beyond for us. Loved that when we arrived, our room was all set up with a separate bedroom. 🌟

    The owners were really friendly and once they discovered that my elderly parents were to be separated into a location involving a slope, they moved us all into two adjoining family units at no extra cost - nothing was too much trouble.

    Friendly staff, functional and clean rooms, nice quality linen. Small but excellent value for money

    A suggestion install a rangehood in the kitchen, given it is a very small space it filled with smoke and cooking smells very quickly, had to have every window open.

    Great location;nice pool and friendly front desk.

    The unit we were in badly needeed a facelift; it was bordering on shabby and the bathroom was scruffy - curtains were falling off,tatty towels etc. Both bedrooms were seriously squashed. Poor value for an expensive break.
