Rooms are air-conditioned and many have stunning views across the English Channel. All have bathrooms with bath and shower. TVs, hairdryers and WiFi are also provided.

With stunning sea views, the View Hotel Restaurant serves tasty, traditional English food in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

The room was much larger than expected and the Sea View was amazing given it was described as a side view. All the staff were very friendly and efficient. For the money I thought is was great value

    The property was well located with lovely views of the beach. The balcony was sheltered and a nice place to enjoy a cup of tea and people watch. Parking was good with a designated spot and secure with gated access. Having two bathrooms was a bonus and makes this apartment ideal for two couples as well as families. Our bed was extremely comfortable and we slept well. The property is pet friendly and we were able to take our dog and enjoyed early morning walks along the beach and around the harbour area.

    Thank you so much for a brilliant bank holiday stay, we loved it. The guest house is gorgeous - cherry tree outside, lots of comfort and lovely design touches that make it feel special - and we couldn’t have been made more welcome. The breakfasts were great, really wide menu (I had both a burrito bowl and a full English) and a sausage for the dog! Great location yards from the sea front, very quiet. Highly recommended.
