    If I had to name something, a larger car park would be great but I found a spot super easy!

    Everything! From the welcoming and friendly staff, delicious fish & chips for dinner to the extra care in welcome notes in the room.

    This is the second Young’s with terribly hard pillows. Go to the chiropractor’s the next day hard. Also, our room had very poor ventilation. Steamy with a shower and stuffy hot at night. Couldn’t open a window because we were at street level and passers-by were looking in.

    The location, the food and the quality.

    The room was a little small. Particularly the space when you get out the shower

    The location is great overlooking the estuary. The staff & food was excellent. Particularly the breakfasts. I would come-back & stay again & recommend the Seagate to other people.

    Breakfast could start at 0700 or 0730

    Brilliant customer services! Staff couldn't have done more to help. In terms of breakfast, because it starts at 0800 and I had to leave before then, they provided a breakfast box which was great. Only criticism is the time for breakfast.

    Food quality variable - some really great some absolutely not - seemed to be a bit of a relaxed attitude from staff about food. Towel radiator didn't work in bathroom - we reported it so maybe it is fixed now.

    Great location with views over the estuary. Spacious, light airy room (room 10) but also warm which we needed given the weather! Plenty of storageto unpack things to. Convenient to be able to get food on site and great choice for breakfast. Staff pleasant.

    Above and beyond, amazing with our dog Bruty (custom meals for your dog), staff excellent and went well out of there way to keep us happy! Pub and area of Appledore was beautiful. Nice friendly characters within the pub and a fantastic happy workforce that worked well together. Young’s should show extra care and attention to keep these staff happy! Will 100% be back! Thanks Tony, Thanks Fisher.

    Nit picking I know, but couldn’t give an exceptional cleanliness rating as one day towels, toilet roll and spare tea bags were left on the floor outside our room. It was 10 o’clock and we’d just come up from breakfast to change before going out for the day. We were unsure if housekeeping was coming back but it was still outside in the evening on our return. Wasn’t a problem but it did mean bins were full, no bed made or clean cups available.

    What’s not to like, staff were all friendly. Location was excellent and food tasty.
