Lodge Stay with Harbour Views

spacious design comfortable seating harbour view filet steak

The reception area had a spacious design with comfortable seating. Our room offered two armchairs and a view of the harbour. Breakfasts were enjoyable, served in a lovely dining room that also overlooks the harbour. The filet steak dinner was a highlight.
