“This inn strikes a fine balance, particularly with its consistently excellent food and genuinely accommodating staff who make guests feel at home. Its charming, traditional pub atmosphere is enhanced by proximity to beautiful coastal walks, though weekend parking can become rather tight. It's clear the team here takes pride in providing a warm, well-cared-for experience, from the thoughtfully prepared breakfast to the comfortable, characterful rooms.”
