I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, located near the coast and offering a lovely view of the beautiful garden from my room. The service, though a bit stretched, tried their best to provide a good experience. The dining options were delightful with the best porridge in East Anglia. However, the large party at the restaurant on Saturday evening caused some inconvenience. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few hiccups.

The hotel is situated close to the coast and two beaches, offering a convenient location while being surrounded by local coastal attractions. The restaurant features the best porridge in the area, but the service at the tables could be improved. The rooms provide a mix of comfort and functionality, with a good shower plus a claw bath, but some lack a bath in the actual bedroom. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for enhancement.
