The family-friendly features provided enjoyment for my children.

I was very disappointed with the overall cleanliness of our room. It was incredibly dusty, which was unacceptable for a family stay. the breakfast was a disaster! The food was served cold, and we had to repeatedly ask for essentials like teaspoons and condiments. The chaotic atmosphere during breakfast was overwhelming, and the lack of proper hygiene standards from the staff made me question the hotel's overall management.

Braw spot for a wee getaway! Staff were pure amazing, especially Patricia who treated us like family. The food in the restaurant was cracking, truly exceeded my expectations. The downside was, the bar food could use a bit of work. Would defo return!

the great northern offered a fantastic stay. the staff were super friendly, making us feel welcome all the time. the location is perfect, just a short stroll to the beach. my kids loved the endless pancakes from the breakfast machine. we also enjoyed a comfortable seating area with lovely mountain views to relax in.

would recommend

the location was the only highlight, but I almost feel bad for saying that. I couldn't even turn on the heat in my room at night. the bathroom mirror light was out, they just overlooked it completely. being a guest at a four-star hotel, I expected some recognition of my stay, but alas, that was just too much to ask, apparently.

Cozy vibes and great food!

Had an amazing weekend! The staff really made us feel at home, like long-lost friends. The bar had a fab selection of snacks and drinks. I loved the evening entertainment. the live music was a nice touch. Just wish the parking could've been a bit easier—some tight spots! All in all, a solid stay.

The room had a cozy atmosphere, yet the bed was terribly uncomfortable.

Amazing brekkie experience!

Had a blast with my family! The breakfast spread was incredible, with tons of gluten-free options that my daughter loved. The staff were really helpful when we needed some extra support for her insulin. Just wish our room had a mini fridge—it would've been super handy. a solid stay, but the mattress could be better!

Loved the spacious twin room and the relaxing spa facilities. The coastal views were breathtaking! Our kids had a blast at the play area. We enjoyed the well-maintained pool too.

Felt totally relaxed, no complaint.

The hotel's charming coastal decor made me feel as if I were in a cozy seaside cottage. Access to lovely sitting areas allowed me to bask in the stunning views of the Atlantic, perfect for unwinding.

More comfortable seating options in common areas.

comfortable stay with fantastic meals

The twin room was very comfortable with lovely high-quality bed linen. The evening meals were truly excellent with a variety of delicious choices that exceeded my expectations.

The leisure facilities were nice though the gym could benefit from more equipment.

The dirty swimming pool was disappointing, yet the comfortable double room was enjoyable.

Here’s what worked – and what didn’t

We loved the kids' enthusiasm at the pool and the stunning location near the beach! Breakfast was exceptional, offering plenty of choices to kick off our days!

The dining experience was marred by inconsistent food quality, and some meals were disappointing, which affected our overall enjoyment!

Great breakfast with many gluten-free options. Room was tiny and uncomfortable.
