Overall a very pleasant stay.
Overall, our stay at the Cottage Inn was good. The parking is to the rear of the hotel which was located next to a spacious beer garden, which was fantastic for our dogs who were warmly welcomed. The hotel staff were all very attentive. The location is excellent, with a short walk to the coast and numerous walks right at our doorstep.

Be aware of what you’re getting before you stay
Room very dated but at the price what you’d expect. Bed comfortable so sleep quality ok, shower you needed to run round to get wet. If it wasn’t for the staff I’d have slated this place but they were so nice the room almost didn’t matter

Where to start with this one, this hotel is descibed as "upscale 4 star hotel", lovely girl on reception but all turn sour when it came to the room. Fast wifi? couldn't tell you as no signal in room, flat screen tv (seen bigger mobile phones) not plugged into the mains or aerial socket so connected it ourselves but couldn't get any channels. Every corner of the room floor and ceiling was covered in cobwebs, don't think its been clean for months , now for the bathroom, turned on the shower and just got a dribble of cold water the hole room was filthy with mould in the cabinet and to top it off the where 2 slugs climbing the bathroom wall in the morning. The only positive thing we got our evening meal for free and the manager (who we never saw) did manage to get the tv working. We are on a walking holiday so had no transport or we would have left straight away

The room was adequate, the toilet was loose at the base, there was dust on the skirting board and only one bed light worked. Also there was a plastic container with a dirty cloth and water in the hallway an overflowing rubbish bin outside and a full cigarette butt container by the entrance door that smelt stale. The food however was excellent.

Very dated
I stayed for one night as part of a walking trip - I think my room was last refurbished before I was born, the furniture and decor was extremely dated. TV was tiny, carpet didn’t actually go up to the wall and the shower dial appeared to be broken. Also going into the pub felt very unwelcoming but that was the customers not the staff. There was a Reform UK poster on the wall which was not great…. The staff were lovely but I think this place takes for granted that walkers will stay here and doesn’t bother to update their rooms or offer anything which would attract a normal paying customer.
