Homemade Delicacies

The food at The Kings Head is simply excellent, with a wide-ranging menu that boasts homemade dishes. I thoroughly enjoyed the lasagne during dinner, and the breakfast had generous portions, especially the poached eggs which were done to perfection. It’s a treat for anyone who appreciates a hearty meal!

Spacious and Clean

The bathroom in my room was impressively large and modern. It was spotlessly clean and provided a refreshing space to get ready each morning. I appreciated the high standards of cleanliness throughout the entire accommodation, which made for a pleasant stay.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, situated just a short walk from the beach and nearby restaurants. The ambiance was cheerful, and I really appreciated the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms. However, I found the breakfast selection to be a bit limited and could use more variety. Overall, it's quite a good value for the price, but it was a bit disappointing that certain amenities like Wi-Fi came at an extra cost.
