Liked everything , The Hotel is positioned right on the Sea Front.Beautiful suroundings. The Hotel just needs a bit of organising in the restaurant.

I'm biased as I have the privilege of looking out over St Bees Beach every day from my house, but saw this on Trip and thought worth adding my halfpenneth worth.
