Great hotel offering real value for money, really enjoyed my stay with welcoming hosts. The breakfast is excellent, you won’t go hungry! The gardens are tranquil and well maintained. The hotel is well situated for visiting other locations along the coast. It’s located in a national park and there are some great walks locally.

Not great place as a foreigner and growly and barking aggressive dog, so please make sure you don’t mind either xenophobia or aggressive dogs when you book in. Owners blamed their dog’s behaviour on us and were unpleasant. Not recommended. There are other great places nearby, and area is lovely, so definitely visit, but be mindful of that place.
