We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Seaview House Hotel. The attention to detail in the hotel is superb. It is beautifully decorated in a classic style. We were very kindly given an upgrade to a gorgeous suite. It was so comfortable, and we enjoyed views on the garden in full bloom. The room was uniquely designed, spacious and had a very comfortable seating area in it. The food was impeccable. The location perfect for exploring this beautiful area. Would happily recommend anyone.
