Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Glengorm Guest House offers a location right next to the centre, allowing for easy access to the town and beach. Many guests found their rooms quite nice for the price, with some even describing them as spacious. While the continental breakfast provides simple options, the guest house's proximity to a pub with live music until late can contribute to an excellent atmosphere, though some have noted that the noise can affect sleep.
