Have just returned from 5 nights at the Lawnswood. The hotel is well situated for the buses, seafront and town. Lovely room with large comfy bed and super shower. The hotel is spotlessly clean.

Very clean nice big room very friendly hosts. Nice fresh breakfast nothing too much trouble. My only moan would be parking they only have three spaces and if three were parked it is almost impossible to get out of your car. It says plenty of road parking that is not the case it was impossible to park at the side... More

We just booked a one night last minute stay off the internet and what a great find. Well positioned, absolutely spotless throughout. Freshly cooked breakfast with quality ingredients and a lovely couple to boot! I would not hesitate to book the Lawnswood again. Well done David and Angela we will return.
