The pool was a great addition to the purple tree
Perhaps could have been closer to the main part of town harbour and restaurants but there are bus stops nearby for the not so able bodied

Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Hosts, Ian and Deb were amazing and very helpful. Breakfast was fantastic with the best poached eggs ever. Nice pool and hot tub and an inexpensive bar.
Bit too far for me to walk into town.

Didn't really stay long enough to experience much. We got to use the pool, which was nice. The host was friendly. Oh. They had an EV charger.
We found the hotel to be extremely noisy. I know that noise can be very subjective. And will probably be different week-to-week. For every person complaining about noise, there's probably someone upstairs having a whale of a time. So, I've tried to be fair and not mark it down to a level that we probably would have on the day.
But we seemed to be walked to the far end of the hotel, placed next to the swimming pool/smoking area on a hot day, when we needed the windows open. There was a lot of noise from the pool and people right outside our window chatting in the early evening, and later in the evening we could hear phonesex-girl down the corridor in the sort of social area, even if we went and closed the door in the corridor. We tried staying, but when everyone upstairs came back after midnight and decided to start dancing and moving all the furniture around, followed by seemingly continuous showers, we gave up. We paid for 3 nights. Left after 1am, the first night. A decision not taken lightly (with a 3 hour journey back).
It didn't seem the best area, if you needed to take your dog out for a walk.
