We only found Cavanans by accident, but we’re so glad we did. The rooms were spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We particularly liked that they could be accessed from both the internal corridor and the courtyard, making it incredibly easy to pull the car right up outside the room to unload and load luggage.
The hotel has its own bar and restaurant, and both were excellent. The food was delicious, and the breakfast was amazing and very reasonably priced.

Stayed for one night and could not fault it. In particular, the staff were attentive and extremely pleasant. We had dinner in the restaurant and the food was lovely with great service and it was reasonably priced. The hotel is city centre so a very good location but you will get a view of the street. Our room was a good size and very clean and overall hotel was clean and very nice.

Stayed during a particularly cold spell and me Hotel was lovely and warm ànd clean coming in from the cold. Restaurant and bar area kept meticulously clean and staff couldn't do enough for ourselves. Lovely open fire added to ambience.
Rooms very clean well kept although our room was to the back of the hotel so missed the sea view from rooms to the front.
One of the few hotels we have stayed at to cook breakfast to order. Not a buffet breakfast and was worth waiting for cooked meal....

I have visited this hotel on more than a dozen occasions for lunch , and was thus aware of the high quality of the food served there and the friendly and efficient staff . It therefore came as no surprise that dinner was of an extremely high standard and that there were plenty of obliging and solicitous staff on what was a very busy Saturday evening . The bedroom was well appointed and comfortable , and there was no noise either internally or from outside . I would have no hesitation in...

A friendly comfortable upmarket hotel with a very reasonable room rate. The Bar even stocks local Craft bottled beers from FARMAGGEDON, just 8 miles up the road.

Very comfortable hotel, although with our large rooms having a sea view we also realised we very looking out onto the coast road which was very busy. We had dinner at the hotel which was very pleasant, but possibly with it being a Sunday evening a few things were unavailable on the dessert menu.
