What an unexpected treat. My wife and I stopped for lunch and discovered the best Gluten Free fish and chips meal we've ever experienced. The cod couldn't have been fresher and the batter was light and crispy. My wife is Coeliac and we both had the GF fish and chips. Can recommend to one and all. We'll be back.

I asked for mustar...

Upon arrival I received a great support from the team, and also for the entire duration of our stay. I would give 5 stars, but restaurant service was not entirely satisfactory (food quality deserves 5 stars). I had the feeling local clients received a different treatment than tourists. With more attention to details in my opinion this hotel still has room of improvements.

Anything I needed or the group needed it was never a problem! They went above and beyond to make sure people's needs were met! It is dog friendly , and even has a dog menu! Truly a wonderful place! The rooms were love...
