Well how disappointing, our most favourite little club when we take our holidays.Well you were closed ..... due to... Covid ? All other clubs were open and operating at full hours so I don’t see why your doors were closed. Then got all excited to go Thursday Night arrived in the pouring rain and you had shut and locked the doors 45minutes early ...wow!! Again is it Covid ?The Bay was packed with tourists so it’s not lack of people.The Ramada is booked out till March so it not lack of people again.Very very very disappointed that you had closed due to Covid when clearly the town is thriving. We will think twice about ever returning to the Fisherman’s Club.read more

Club now only just operating a few days a week and kitchen is only open for a few lunch times, and then they close... earlier than stated eg 7pm and were closed at 6:15pm. Plenty of tourists around as Ramada was fully booked out and is booked out till March 2021, so obviously something to do with COVID........?????.....read more
