Reviews of Hotels in the UK & Around the World
Here you can browse and read all my reviews on hotels we’ve stayed in around the world.
Firsthand opinions on all types of hotels in a variety of locations.
Saunton Sands Hotel – North Devon
Perched high above a seemingly never-ending stretch of golden sand on the rocky North Devon coast sits a gem of a hotel. Paula and I were fortunate to experience three nights at the Saunton Sands Hotel and would return like a shot, so impressed were we with every aspect of our stay.
