Fantastic view, lovely food
We were able to check in early which was a nice touch, as were the complementary drinks and snacks. We ate outside in the afternoon and the burger was delicious. The bed was a bit on the soft side for my liking but I had a wonderful night’s sleep. Breakfast was lovely, but it is cooked to order so factor that into your timing. All in all a wonderful stay, will definitely be back

Lovely hotel with a fantastic location , rooms very comfortable and clean . Excellent value for money . One side note is please allow an extra £9 per day parking fee as hotel does not have parking and you have to use beach car park opposite.

Couples night away.
Very clean and a really lovely room, luxurious with bathrobes. The fridge with drinks and snacks to buy was a nice touch, as were the two complimentary cans of Korev. Great shower room. Fantastic view. Couldnt ask for more. The staff are very welcoming, attentive and helpful. We enjoyed our evening meal and breakfast which has a great choice.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Old Success Inn. The location was fantastic, the room was beautifully designed, the quality was brilliant and I adored the small touches like the complimentary Korev and the Robert’s radio gently playing as we arrived. The staff were friendly and professional and made our short stay thoroughly enjoyable.
