THE LOOK AND FEEL
The style of this adult-only hotel is traditional, very much in keeping with its heritage, with a modernised feel. Originally two separate houses, a corridor was added in the 1920s connecting the two buildings, now lovingly restored to a period seaside retreat, reminiscent of its former glory. The hotel showcases a design-led spa, a large dining room, palm-fringed gardens and inimitable sea views.
THE FACILITIES
Sit back and enjoy a personable approach that is focused on attention-to-detail whilst soaking up the surroundings in one of the two open-plan lounges, or unwind in the bar area with a tipple of choice. There's also a brand new design-led spa and sloping manicured lawns. In summer, seek out the heated outdoor pool.
