breakfast was excellent with very good service. Plates were hot and food arrived quickly. We were impressed with the communal rooms on the ground floor, very warm and welcoming with a real 1940's elegance.

Suite overlooking the sea was excellent - a little on the cool side at first but it warmed up later. Breakfast in the main dining room was very good with very attentive staff - we also dined there one evening with very good results.
