8. The pool area is lovely, very clean, towels provided etc, and there is an amazing sea view, the only small niggle was that the decking area is down wind of the kitchen exhaust chimney from a resturant on the front (The news Cafe - worth a visit) and there is a smell of fried food when the wind is coming on to the shore, but we were happy to go to the beach (only a 2 minute walk & the free sun loungers and umbrella provided by the hotel are a nice touch).
