Great stop on the NC500.
We only stayed one night whilst travelling the NC500 and this was a great place to rest our heads. Really comfortable bed, plenty of amenities in the room, nice shower, couldn't ask for more really. Only minor niggle is that the walls were a tad thin, or maybe those in the next room were just loud. Didn't disturb our sleep though. We also had dinner here and the food was lovely, staff really friendly, plenty of variety. Breakfast was also top notch! Beautiful beach 10 mins walk down the road if you fancied an evening or morning stroll.
