    Fine for a cheeky overnight. Rated as good - you get what you pay for

    The bedlinen was badly marked. The fridge had been disconnected meaning it wasn't great at keeping things cool. The curtains were woefully inadequate. the carpet was bleach marked in spots. The property is quite dated (nothing wrong with that really) but the ashtray at the entrance is over flowing and nobody on site mainly.

    The location was ideal for anyone who drives. It has magnificent views if you get a room with sea views. It is a warm property. It was quiet when we were there, which was ideal to sleep. There were plenty of plugs.

    The room felt very dated, the bed mattress is very old and not very comfortable, two singles pushed together, wood work chipped,would definitely benefit from some paint and a new mattress.

    The commute from the lodge to the hotel for breakfast. Was further than expected. Extremely good breakfast with local produce.

    The room overlooked the sea. Best bed ever we have had (we have stayed in many hotels over the years) so comfortable. Luxury towels, fridge in room + was quiet. Free telephone in room.

    The place appeared to be very old-fashioned and abandoned. I'm not entirely sure, but it could be because it was out of season. We wasn't sure if we can use social area as there was nobody there.

    We loved the location and the amazing view from our spacious room, which had two chairs and a small table near the window. The bed was comfortable, and everything we needed was provided.

    Nothing we didn't like as such. Only a few nit picking things, 2 of our lamps didnt work and the tv in the back bedroom didnt get any channels and a hdmi lead was damaged and hanging out of it. The room could do with some plates and cutlery on top of the cups as the only food available is from a takeaway a couple of miles down the road and unless you can find a plate somewhere then you're eating out of foil tubs.

    Very quiet. Rooms were very comfortable and spacious, bathroom was very good. Parking to rear of hotel with EV charger if you drive a go kart there.

    Information left for us was limited. It was also misleading - it suggested a meal was available at Bailey Ground Hotel. This was untrue and the hotel is also unstaffed most of the time.

    Location overlooking the sea. Clean and comfortable. Good value.
