The hotel provides fresh milk in the fridge, not UHT, which I thought was a nice touch. The gardens feature sheltered seating areas and a great swimming pool. I found the breakfast offered ample choice (especially the sausages!). The hotel staff are friendly and cute. Nothing seemed too much trouble for them.

The spacious family room easily fit all of us. The kids loved the retro games room. It had arcade games like Pacman and Donkey Kong. I really appreciated the well-stocked bar! It was perfect for unwinding with live music.
The WiFi was a bit unreliable during the last couple of days. It worked perfectly for the first two days! This was a small inconvenience during an otherwise wonderful stay.

Fantastic Experience!

artificial lawn fine view
Our room featured a private garden area. It included a fine artificial lawn. A table and chairs set with two sun loungers were available. I appreciated the gate at the end of the garden. It provided access to the meticulously maintained hotel garden. The outdoor pool offered fine views of the English Channel, which I enjoyed.
The shower head in the bathroom showed some dirt. I cleaned it before using it. The taps were separate instead of a modern mixer style. I think modernizing these fittings would greatly improve the bathroom experience.
