I had a wonderful stay, the rooms are a nice size, that owner is lovely and you're a 3 minute walk from the coast. I would highly recommend staying here, and it's not expensive at all.

Absolutely awful customer service. Spoke to the proprietor Wendy this evening. Simply asked how much were dog charges. She ummed and ahhed. Then said 'ohhh it depends'. What exactly does this mean? How much extra she could fleece from the customer? So very vague and dodgy.She asked if I was looking to book soon. I stated yes. She suddenly said she had to check someone in and would call me back. Iknew she would not, and she did not.What a horrible lady. So glad I did not book there as I was about to book three weeks.Soon hostile and obnoxious.
