    "Generally, we had a very pleasant stay at the hotel, but would have preferred a better shower and warmer room."

    Excellent service: friendly and professional. The room was comfortable and we appreciated having lots of storage space.

    The room was a little cold, as there was only a small radiator near the door. The shower control was not very responsive to changing temperature, so I nearly scalded myself on a couple of occasions whilst trying to adjust it.

  • 100% Older Couple

    from Aylesbury UK, stayed on March 18, 2009

    "I am a fussy person when it comes to hotels but I would thoroughly recommend this one. There are excellent online reviews for this hotel and in the hotel's dining room there are countless 'thank you' cards from other happy travellers which speak for themselves. "

    We stayed in the superior double room with ensuite which has a double bed and a single bed. It is a spotlessly clean hotel, breakfast is cooked to order: using some locally sourced produce, fairtrade coffee, and a vegetarian choice too, and nothing is too much trouble. There is attention to every detail and you are made to feel very welcome. There is a small bar menu for an evening snack such as jacket potatoes, and the bar is open early evening only not Sundays but you can use the room for sitting and reading. There are many restaurants in walking distance and a small supermarket at the end of the road. There are a few parking spaces you are given a parking permitprovided in front of the hotel which seemed to be enough as we always managed to park there.

    If I really had to search for a bad point it would be that the ensuite door glided rather than shut and left a gap when closed. I'm sure this is a space problem but it reduced privacy. However it is such a small point and we just accepted it.

    "Having taken the chance to book on the internet this review service helped us choose the Claremont. We were certainly very happy with our choice and made to feel most welcome by Scott and Alan. I would certainly recommend the hotel and already have - so I hope they take up chance for a visit. The situation of the hotel makes the town very accessible. We hope to book again in the summmer and get to check out more of the coastline and beaches."

    "I cannot answer what I would like to have known beforehand, I always wait till i arrive and hope that it is reasonable accommodation and at the very least value for money. If it turns out better than my base expectations then it's a bonus, which in this case it was."

    The owner/staff were so friendly, couldn't do enough for their guests. Room was very clean & tidy, nicely decorated. Great fresh choice of food served for breakfast.
