Shop around the net for prices, they vary hugely, we paid £640 for two for 4 nights B&B in June. The hotel is stunning, recently refurbished and is in a fantastic position, you almost get two holidays in one, a beach and city break. The buffet breakfast is fantastic, full english and continental. The hotel has a free boat to... more
