Light venue, spacious bar area, charming location in a lovely village. The staff were more than helpful and seemed to be incredibly polite.

Everything was modern, but we stayed for 1 night only. A beautiful historic place, we loved its super location. A lovely beach, magnificent view.

Breakfast was EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD, location was lovely, staff was very attentive. They made my stay best. The snack bar in the hotel had lots of savoury brandies and coffee throughout the day. Besides, ampleforth abbey was 4 km away from the venue.
