Find the Best Skivarp Hotels

The hotel's appearance and location are second to none. A beautiful quiet harbour right on the seafront. However therein lies the problem. We stayed when the sea**** was honking its stench right across the miles of coastline on either side of the village, and right into our room. The room itself was part of the problem. No air con, in the circumstances above, meant that the windows had to be kept shut (the smell was rotten eggs and sewage) and it was HOT. A small fan was provided, but in a tiny 'twin' room that was the size of a small university dorm room from the 1980s, two beds, two tables, a tiny en-suite and a bench were squeezed together, and the whole experience was dispiriting and uncomfortable. The staff and hotel can't help the smell, but apparently it's a bit of a problem in the area, happening all too regularly, and whilst the design and styling of the hotel is perfect and redolent of the area in every way, there needs to be some investment in A/C to enable windows to be comfortably shut, and in plumbing to sort out the bathroom smells emanating from below into the en-suite. I'd have loved this place to have been fantastic as it's really beautiful, and the staff (all very young and keen to help with anything) were great. But the owners need to do some work on the infrastructure, and invest - apparently that sea**** is going nowhere fast, and warm, onshore windy days aren't uncommon in that part of the world. We were told the smell is worse in winter.
