The hotel offers a fantastic location close to the ferry for Salcombe with a beautiful outdoor seating area by the indoor pool and proximity to the coast and a supermarket. The rooms have comfortable beds and beautiful views but lacked sufficient storage in the cupboards. The service is friendly, although a proper reception desk would enhance the experience. The dining experience notably includes delightful homemade soups. Overall, it's a great value for money, except for minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers a stunning location with a private sandy beach and convenient access to Salcombe by ferry. The rooms provide beautiful views and ample cupboard space, but a proper reception desk would enhance the service experience. Despite this, the housekeeping and welcome drink service were top-notch. Dining was satisfactory, although more options would be appreciated. The indoor pool's outdoor seating area is a highlight, and the overall value for money is fair.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with its stunning location by the indoor pool's outdoor seating area, although there was a slight inconvenience with the availability in the restaurant. The rooms offered a beautiful view and plenty of space in the cupboards, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable. However, I found it frustrating that I had to take a ferry to get to Salcombe.
