    Hidden gem, great food

    Liked : The Silver Eel is a hidden gem. Brilliant, friendly staff with a gorgeous view from the balconies which some of the bedrooms have. It's a small, family run hotel and the decor may be dated, but the food more than makes up for it. Right on the water, it's the perfect spot for a quiet getaway at an affordable price.Comfortable and clean no bells and whistles.
