seaside escape review

special locationfriendly staffbreakfast food
I thought the location was really special with views directly to the sea. every staff member was polite. Each seemed friendly. i found the food very good, particularly during breakfast. we used the yard to store our bicycles, which gave us confidence thanks to the closed gates.
I noticed some areas looked a little dated. A serious investment would make a difference.
