Welcome

The Clifton is perched high on the cliffs, overlooking sparkling blue waters and out to Culver Cliffs.

We warmly welcome all of our guests to The Clifton. However due to the historic nature and inherited design features of the building we are aware that some of our guests need as much information about our facilities as possible, in order to ensure it is suitable to make their holiday the perfect experience.
