The creak of harbour ropes and the cry of gulls drift through the windows, and you fall asleep to the sound of tide against stone.
This is bunkhouse accommodation with a coastal edge — perfect for walkers tackling long-distance trails, groups of friends after a proper pub base, or anyone who wants a bed and a pint under the same roof without the fuss of canvas. The camping pod offers a step up in privacy if you're travelling as a couple or want your own four walls. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing yours. There's WiFi if you need to check the weather or plan tomorrow's route, but the real draw is the location — harbour, sea air, and paths that stretch in both directions.
It's a working inn first, a place to stay second, so expect a bit of bustle in the evenings and a friendly, no-frills approach. Campfires are sometimes possible — check when you arrive. Open all year, which makes it a solid winter option when most campsites have shuttered up. Honest, simple, and properly coastal.
