“From the outside, the building has a charming presence, a feeling that carries through to spacious rooms, some with balconies that afford pleasant valley views. The staff, particularly Karly, Anya, and Sophie, consistently impress with their genuine warmth and efficient service, elevating the dining experience, especially the well-regarded carvery. It's a welcoming spot that feels particularly well-situated for those attending events nearby or simply appreciating the coastal road access.”
