We generally associate swimming in the sea with hot summer days, where swimming is simply the perfect way to cool off. But did you know plunging into cold water has many health benefits?

We would love if you could take a moment to vote. It has been a very challenging time for hospitality, and these awards will be a much need lift and encouragement to all the amazing restaurants and hotels, and hardworking people who make them.

Our philosophy at Housel is simple. We work with the best local suppliers to attain the best ingredients. We then create dishes which reflect the care and dedication which created these ingredients to begin with.

It is with a very heavy heart, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close our hotel for the coming two weeks. Due to a localised spread we are left sadly under staffed at this time. We will go into temporary ‘hibernation’ after the breakfast shift on Thursday 8th October, and reopen at lunchtime on Friday 23rd October.

The leaves are turning golden, the log fire is getting lit as the nights are slowly drawing in. It is time to slow down, unwind, and enjoy this beautiful time of year.
