A seaside gem
If you want to be close to the ‘action’ in a small seaside town you couldn’t choose a better spot. The view from the front rooms is stunning, the beds are too comfortable to make early rising easy and the staff is Maritime-friendly- just the best

Family stay
We were in town for a wedding. Kennedy House was just a block away from the venue. The Thursday market was right across the street. Our room was clean and very spacious. Check in was easy by a very friendly staff member
