A wonderful stay at Hodges, would recommend it totally unless you are a perfection snob. A small slightly tired area with steps inside, and a very small bathroom, but if you are willing to forgive that then you will have a ball like we did. Property owners are fantastic and very helpful. What made the holiday was the location. Couldn't better it. Gorlestone is one of my favourite places now. Best Chinese takeaway ever, just 15 steps away. Free entertainment on the manicured lawns to front of house. Beach to die for, even though there was a lot of sand between pier and sea. Good for the exercise. Great for children and seniors and everyone. Very friendly place.
