Seven of the en suite bedrooms are in the main building, seven in the adjacent Angel, all very attractive with a nautical flavour and panoramic sea views. The Angel also has a comfortable sitting room, with bar & eating area, and large screen TV which lends itself perfectly to an all-inclusive house party for 14 guests.

Sailing and seal watching from the Ha'penny Pier can be arranged. The Pier is open all day every day serving local fish and shellfish landed in the harbour some 20 feet from the restaurant.


Dogs welcome. Open all year.
