The hotel is situated directly opposite the ocean with the potential of viewing whales directly from your bedroom. The place is well appointed, however I have stayed in 5 star hotels that are somewhat more beautifully appointed. I highly recommend the hotel for it's locality, within walking distance of a good selection of restaurants and excellent coffee shops.

I really hate it when I book a 5 star place expecting 5 star all the way and then the reality turns out to be a good 3 star or at a push 4star. This is exactly how Harbour House was for us. It certainly gets 5 stars for the location, view and the rooms BUT as far as service... More

The highpoint of our stay at the Harbour House Hotel was the breakfast we had outside at the long table underneath the old pine tree. It was breathtaking! the view over the bay pristine, the sea bright and the food great. It will stay with me forever.

My husband and I are spending the weekend at Harbour House - We have not even spent our first night here yet and I am already amazed by the ' little surprises'. Just before leaving for dinner at about 7pm there was a knock at the door - they came to deliver cupcakes and bottled water. When we arrived back... More

I was surprised to see that there was a kitchenette with microwave, kettle, toaster etc and an... More

Looked up at one of the rooms which had a gorgeous chalandier light and thought oooh I'd love that room. Sure enough we were shown to that room and it was delightful. Huge bed super comfy and a large corner sofa... More

A member of staff quickly came out and removed our cases from the car and took them into the hotel reception. We were given a friendly welcome and we were shown to our room with our cases being brought along too. We were... More

Very nice spot to stop ... stunning views, spacious well appointed rooms, close to excellent restaurants including Burgandy's across the road. Lovely breakfast and friendly staff. Beautiful coastal walks. Would definitely stay again.

We stayed at the Harbour House for two nights with our four month old baby in April. The staff were very helpful and friendly from the start. The comfortable cot was assembled when we checked into our large room with it's enormous bed and little 'kitchen' area. The hotel is right by the sea and we could walk all along... More
