They provide an English breakfast with lots of options. The rooms were incredibly comfortable and delightful and had a fabulous view of the beach. The location was brilliant - very close to the Eurotunnel, all conveniences and 'historic pub'.

We had a freshly cooked and superb breakfast with wonderful views, for all tastes. The staff was pleasant and incredible. The setting was incredible, very close to the restaurant overlooking sea, nearby Hythe and Folkestone, and all conveniences. Found time to see Western Approaches Museum, that's approx 10-15 minutes' walk from the property.
