We first went here 12 years ago for our honeymoon. My parents had booked us into the grand hotel but the room was awful and we argued until we got our money back and the young lady on reception advised us to try the riviera across the road.
It was a vast improvement on what we had just seen. The owners were lovely and showed us a few rooms before we picked one and paid for it. It was conformtable with decent space around the bed with a good view and was ensuite and had tea and coffee.
The floor boards creaked abit as they tend to do in any older building.
The breakfast was lovely - well cooked and well presented with ample choice of hot and cold, traditional breakfast as well as kippers or porriage (or vegertarian cooked breakfast) - so would suit all tastes. The staff are friendly and helpful and are happy to give advice on where to go. You also have the option of booking evening meals and they do have a licence to serve alcohol in a small bar area.
We have been going back once a year ever since. The only downside is now it is getting a bit pricey as you pay per person not per room so there are less expensive B&Bs available in the area.
They do have a web site you can check out. read more
