Positive: We loved the location…right by the harbour where the slipway is for the wee ferry. The room was huge and we had an unexpected side view of the sea which was lovely. The hotel is much bigger than we thought it looked online, so is the bar and restaurant. We had a lovely vegan meal in the restaurant. The Thai curry was excellent. The staff in the hotel were all lovely. We loved the atmosphere in the bar at night and the live music was fantastic.
Summary: A perfect stay on a beautiful quaint little island
