“I found the setting quite different from the usual hotel experience, offering a welcome change of scenery. The outdoor space, particularly the decking right on the sea, was a real highlight, especially when catching the late afternoon sun. It's a thoughtfully appointed place that feels warm and well-cared for, even down to the small touches.”
