We received a very warm welcome with tea in the lounge/breakfast room before being shown to our room. We had booked the Princess Caroline Room on line and it exceeded our expectations with splendid views of the pier. Continental breakfast was served in the room below, with a same view.

Stayed here a few times and now wouldn't stay antwhere else. Parking can be an issue but is easily managable and wouldn't influence my choice. Friendly and very helpful staff, rooms spotless, bright and airy. Nice views over estuary
