I went there on a Sunday and all the stores were closed. I just ended up walking along the shore in the British cold weather while the Scots get along with their weekend life. It was a cloudy day like any regular UK weather. #beach

Great hotel in an amazing location. Rooms were good, but very hot & if you opened the windows could get a little noisy at night due to its central location. Would definitely stay again.
