We stayed in a lovely room above the pub overlooking the harbour. The room was spacious and we liked being right in the heart of the town. It can be noisy though with music from nearby pubs so expect that to go on until 11ish. The staff are all very helpful and the pub itself is lovely. Parking is tricky, we were lucky to find a spot nearby but we did have to pay.

Room was amazing (rm14) and we would request again. Housekeeping and reception staff were very pleasant and friendly. However the breakfast service could be improved as 4 guests were served before us on first day and we had to ask to be served. On our second day we weren’t even asked for our breakfast order.
