Glenghorm Beach Resort

Glenghorm Beach Resort

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed watching the waves come in at the beach area, the cocktails were delicious and the pub on site was super convenient. Breakfast was OK and again convenient being right on the property. The rooms, however, need to be updated. There was rust along all the window frames and baseboard heaters, the floors had a gritty feel with the bathrooms needing alot of TLC."
