Centrally located, a warm welcome, good breakfast and good clean accommodation. Slightly noisy in the rooms overlooking the road. Expect a quiet atmposhere in the bar area - its run as a hotel and traditional pub

We visited over a very cold Easter weekend but there was a warm welcome in the Smugglers Inn. There can be a climb to your room however the owners were friendly and the staff attentive. The evening meal choice was vey good. Our only criticism was the choice of cereals at breakfast which could have been wider but the full... More

The Smugglers Haunt hotel gave us an excellent welcome and showed us to the room. it was a typical seaside hotel set up, with rooms that were never really designed to hold a family, BUT the room was of a reasonable size and clean; and the most important thing...

Our first staycation in 17 years bought us to this lovely fishing harbour and the smugglers haunt hotel. It was good overall, the owners were very friendly and made us feel welcome.

We stayed four nights in this hotel, the room was very nice however bathroom a little small. Owners were ok, although he said to us "we don't usually take younger people" which was slightly off putting. Breakfast was good full English, although served a little earlier for whats supposed to be a week off work, between 8-9am. Overall nice place... More
