This is a hotel trying, but failing to make it into the 21st century. The majority of guests are well passed retirement age and so probably don’t mind that , even though the bedrooms are modern, a lot of the furniture in the public spaces, and certainly the carpets, are as old as they are. Some areas, especially the reception and balconies are in need of some serious refurbishment. The menu might be recognised by a diner in 1960 and certainly couldn’t be accused of pretentiousness ( e.g. fanned melon, then leg of lamb with cabbage, carrots and boiled potatoes) but food was nevertheless tasty and the portions were very generous, as was the after dinner coffee - a whole cafetière rather than two miserable little cups. The saving grace for this hotel are the staff who, from the manager down, were unfailingly friendly, helpful and efficient. The prices are at the luxury level end of the scale. There’s not a lot of luxury, but the place is pleasantly old-fashioned and its situation, overlooking Hope Cove would be difficult to beat.
