our a double room was spotless and new-fashioned, had sea view. the hotel was in a remote location right on the seafront. what's more, it was close enough to right by the harbour, a pretty quay and the rnli station and bristol and surrounding areas.

Actually everything was excellent. I enjoyed welcoming and exceptional staff and appetising food. The beds and pillow were exceptionally comfortable. The location was marvellous, by the harbour, the view was absolutely brilliant, too. Moreover, it's just off pub, Minehead, Butlins.

We had a great time with our kids, especially enjoying the lovely breakfast and the beautiful view from our room overlooking the harbour. The play area was a hit with the little ones, and we loved hanging out in the cozy lounge with a drink. Just a small heads up-the toilet could've been a bit cleaner upon arrival, but it didn't ruin our stay at all. 😊

The old ship has a fantastic location near the harbor. We loved the king room, larger than average with plenty of space to move around. The pub-style menu was better than expected and created a nice ambiance. The staff were super attentive. Best of all, the free overnight parking was a huge plus!

fantastic access to harbourside strolls and gardens
The staff were friendly and cute, and the food was first class, serving excellent breakfasts that set us up for our day of exploring. We loved being just a short stroll away from the picturesque Blenheim Gardens, where we could relax and enjoy some gorgeous views.

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing
I had an absolute blast! The harbor view from my balcony room was amazing, where I enjoyed watching boats bobbing in the water and fine sunsets. The food was a treat with local ingredients-my fish and chips were fresh and oh-so-tasty! The live music at the pub added the perfect touch to our evenings.
