The building faces the western approaches and has commanding sea views. There are large pleasant gardens which you are invited to enjoy. Our double bedrooms have showers and all our bedrooms have washbasins, central heating, tea/coffee making facilities, colour tv linked with video and satellite, etc. E-mail facilities are available.
