The windows need replacing, the noise from the wind was terrible. The place needs a deep clean there is lots of dust and cobwebs and kitchen was grimy. The shower needs sorting out, the water presure was awful and kept going hot and cold.

Captains Quarters is a great place to stay, comfortable beds, location fabulous with fantastic views. Yes there is noise from the bar below, slamming doors and punters chatting outside, but manageable with earplugs if you are early to bed. The upstairs shower is an issue regarding lack of water pressure and goes from hot to cold every 20 seconds or so. Would it stop us from staying here again, absolutely not! The location and view is definitely worth it!
