Cozy coastal getaway
We stayed for 2 nights and were really impressed! The place is super cozy, with nice decor and new carpets. The breakfast was yummy, and the outdoor seating by the sea was a treat. The staff were friendly, but the check-in process was a bit slow. a lovely experience!

The room featured modern refurbishments, creating a fresh environment for a relaxing stay. A hearty breakfast by Gwen kicks off the day, adding a personal touch to the dining experience.
En suite bathrooms felt a bit cramped, and the shower lacked sufficient water pressure, which could be a dealbreaker for some. Sleeping arrangements with two single beds pushed together might not suit everyone as a genuine double. noise from neighboring dogs and seagulls can disrupt peaceful mornings, so early risers may find it bothersome.

Just a nice choice for a weekend excursion in Bardsea with fantastic value for money. Loved the warm atmosphere from the log burner while enjoying a tasty meal. Park carefully on arrival, as the stones can be tricky.

Fantastic Family Getaway!
We had a lovely two-night stay, enjoying the comfortably arranged rooms and the delicious meals. The highlight was the full English breakfast, tailored to our preferences, especially the eggy bread! Be sure to try the steak pie during dinner. Perfect for family gatherings.

great stay but could improve service consistency
The room was spotlessly clean, which made our stay very relaxing. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful garden view and the peaceful surroundings, perfect for evening walks.
One staff member seemed less attentive compared to others.

Absolutely loved the warm hospitality, especially from Katie and Gwen! The breakfasts were just divine and made with care. Only downside was a bit of a weak phone signal. Can’t wait to return! 😊

perfect base for exploring stunning landmarks and parks
I enjoyed a great breakfast choice in the morning and a wonderful, home-cooked meal at night during my stay, making it easy to relax and refuel after a day of walking around the beautiful nearby parks like Sea Wood and exploring historical sites like Swarthmoor Hall, which is just about 3 km away.
