Mrs Hawker
October 2013

Stayed in Bayview Bungalow 1. As my husband is a permanent wheelchair user it was not quite wheelchair friendly as his wheelchair was too wide to enter the wetroom and bedrooms. However, the gentleman at Reception acquired a smaller manual wheelchair for us by the next day and we were very grateful.
The bungalow was very clean with lovely views of the bay.
We found the bedrooms quite cold at night with no form of heating with only a convector heater in the lounge.
The lounge seating was very soft and low and not suitable for someone with mobility problems.
Overall we did enjoy our stay but I would say it was not quite disable friendly which we did point out to the booking clerk at Hoseasons.

We had a fantastic weekend here! The place was just what we needed and we really enjoyed our stay. The garden was perfect for our dogs and they absolutely adored the underfloor heating - Luna was wagging her tail so much she strained it! Definitely planning to come back soon. Happy pups, happy us!
