The cottage

Set over two floors, Lemoria Cottage is a self-contained living space with all the comforts associated with The Nare. Upstairs is an elegant sea-view bedroom (king/twin) with a Juliet balcony overlooking the beach. Downstairs, meanwhile, there is a comfortable sitting room, dining area and fitted kitchen, complete with an oven, fridge, dishwasher and sink. Elsewhere are a small landing and a delightful bathroom fitted with a bath and a separate walk-in shower.

The cottage also benefits from a private garden and terrace – perfect for soaking up the sea air and sea views. 

Resident's Cream Tea

Guests of The Nare are invited to take part in a much-loved and long-standing tradition: the residents' daily cream tea. Served every afternoon since 1989, it was introduced by Bettye Gray - grandmother of the hotel’s current proprietor and the visionary whose principles continue to shape The Nare today.
