“What strikes me most is the blend of historic charm and modern hospitality near Sidmouth's seafront. It's family-run, and that personal touch comes through, especially with the honesty bar. The hotel makes a fine base for exploring the Jurassic Coast; there is even on-site campervan hire available, adding a unique touch.”
