The Knoll House

10/10 Excellent

"Property was dated and in need of attention -but understand planning permission is being waited for to replace and modernise the whole hotel site The rooms were clean Location excellant a short walk to a lovely beach Buffett Breakfast was very substantial NOTE if you book thru an agent you Have to pay £10 pp pn for the pool etc !"

Monkton Wyld Court

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location to escape busy nearby seaside towns,accomodation was basic but eco friendly and has its own charm.what else do you need to relax and rest after all day at the beach? . We had a room on the second floor,the view from the window was great;,meadow and trees .the smell of the lavenders at the evening from the front yeard were truly amazing! The staff member who welcomed us was friendly and polite ,and she showed us around everything. The breakfast was self serviced based ,but my son was excited he could cook his own scrambled eggs in a kids friendly kitchen and had fun doing his own toast in the toaster.everything was really easy reachable and handy in the kitchen and dining area. We were eating breakfast in the communal area where all guest can sit together. We really enjoyed our stay at the court. I genuinely recommend it. It's also worth to visit the small garden opposite the court,it's open 10-4 every day and you can leave small donation in the front if you want to."
