Sea view rooms

For those who love sand, sea and coast, The Nare's sea view rooms are a real treat. Each features a spacious terrace or balcony, offering front-row seats to the natural theatre of Gerrans Bay. Here, breakfast can be enjoyed as the sun rises over the waves. Or simply sit back and sip tea, soothed by the gentle hubbub of Carne Beach. There really is no other place on Earth quite like it.

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.
