“Stunning location and super freindly and helpful staff, would recommend.”
Breakfast was simple, and there weren’t many guests around when we stayed. I’m not sure I’d return after 22.00, and there’s no lift.

We fell asleep to the sound of the tide and woke up to coffee on the terrace—pure bliss. The staff and surroundings were fantastic, going above and beyond. I snagged a magnet and a candle from the tiny shop for keepsakes. Definitely coming back; everything was spectacular.

I absolutely loved everything—being inside a cave was such an experience. The staff were helpful and friendly, and I’d recommend it to anyone. They let me leave a frog behind the bar; I always leave one in my mum’s memory because she adored frogs.

The staff were great and the views brilliant, but the room advertised as a double felt more like a 3/4, not ideal for two large people.

The beachfront location was perfect. In room ‘Salty Kisses’, the view and the doors opening to the beach were a lovely bonus.
