Lighthouse Lodge

Old..

Check-in as at the gas station directly next door. We arrived very late, but the store clerk was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable.

This is a funky little place where you actually check in at the BP gas station next door! The people were great, and ice was available to purchase. We were actually a tiny bit disappointed that they had done away with the striped bedspreads pictured and "upgraded" to the white duvets you find everywhere else, but that was just for nostalgia's sake. For dinner we drove to the excellent Wooden Tie Cafe, just a couple miles away.

My stay was comfortable even though I came across oddities I've never encountered before. The first was that to check in, I had to go to the gas station next door where I had to wait for a phone call from the clerk to someone in charge of the Lodge. The second, and this was a good one, was that the locks are digital keypads. I was given the code when I checked in. The room was comfortable and fulfilled our needs. Although we could have used a hair dryer in the room. I would stay here again.
