The noise from rooms around us was sometimes quite loud. We were in a flat roof extension at the fare end of the hotel.

Location was perfect. The food was very good. The staff were helpful and friendly. Facilities were very good but certain areas of the hotel were dated.

The hotel is starting to feel neglected, nothing major just little things, like light bulbs need Changing, weeds on balconies, bathroom fittings require attention.

The location of the hotel is excellent, food was great and the staff are always friendly.

Absolutely brilliant stay , great views , staff friendly, food great . Yes a little dated but that adds to the appeal , very 1930’s - just great.

Food options on a Sunday night for dinner was limited. The roast was delicious but the portions were tiny. Also for the price (approximately £20 for a roast) I would expect not to have to buy additional vegetables.

Location fantastic near the beach and the hotel has lovely front gardens with lots of benches to sit and relax. Inside there are lots of sofas and chairs around for guests to relax in

Too many owners of dogs, though to be fair their dogs were pretty well behaved.

Really friendly staff lovely big room. Superb location and breakfast and evening meal were superb. Great facilities...including indoor and outdoor pool .

Old fashioned charm in a great location. It has a beautiful outdoor pool that was immaculately kept and 26 degrees (in April!). We were delighted to be able to swim.

A separate area for dining with table and chairs for dog owners

Having to eat on a sofa because of having a dog was not ideal

The hotel is very very dated. Some will enjoy it's charm, others will see the huge investment required to bring it up to date. Our family was split on the quality of the hotel. It certainly helped to have the sun shining!!

The location is superb and the hotels number 1 selling point

Very much in need of a major facelift. Run down and tatty. And far too many dogs for my liking

It was not as bad as the reviews might lead you to believe!

The noise of dripping on the wall keep wakes me up at night

The location

Stayed in April 2024

We have been holidaying at Knoll house for many years and accept the place is tired, out of date, grubby and dusty in places But it is an outstanding location and they accept dogs which is truly a bonus. Therefor we close our eyes to a lot and accept it is as it is and enjoy our holiday and evening meal which is usually served and cooked well.

While it’s still unmodernized there’s nothing to dislike but I’d be reluctant to come if it lost its traditional character

I love the old world charm , delicious food , friendly staff and proximity to a wonderful dog friendly beach

I just think certain things about the building need updating. Eg, the bathrooms and the exterior of the buildings, the exterior from the car park entrance is a bit shabby. . Otherwise I love the place and I hope it doesn’t change that much.

I live the fact dogs are very welcome. The bed sheets are really good, fresh and clean. The location is perfect.

Whilst we liked the quirky interiors some of the facilities were shabby I.e. indoor pool and bathroom.

Location, room with sea view.

Our room had a connecting door to the next room, so we could hear our neighbours' conversations and their TV. On one evening we got sufficiently tired of this that we went to the lounge to get some peace and quiet. Also knowing that our neighbours could probably hear us (when they did not have the TV on) made our room seem less private. On two of the three nights we were there, the vegetarian option was different types of wild mushroom pasta: this was good, but not much variety. The set-price meals may have been appropriate for the meat dishes, but to someone having the vegetarian options they seemed a bit over-priced. The pasta and sauce was good, but for the price we felt that there could have been a bit more accompanying it - even a bit of salad or something else to add a little more variety to the dish. Maybe we'd have reacted differently on different nights but, although they were perfectly acceptable, the vegetarian options seemed a bit of an afterthought compared with meat and fish dishes on the menu.

Nice location, plenty of space and availability of communal rooms. The tables in the dining room were nicely spaced out and not over-crowded. There were many facilities that we might have used if we had been there for longer, such as the pool.

the check in was very poor. My room wasn't ready until 30 minutes after the check in time of 4.00pm. After a very long drive it eas very frustrating to have to sit in the lobby waiting. No complimentary offers made to compensate.

the stay went well, breakfast was good, flexible use of facilities before and after check in /check out

It was a ‘proper’ welcoming hotel. Even had log fires. Good excellent
