Piermont Retreat

I’ve stayed at Piermont a few times now and it never fails to work its magic. There’s just something about the setting — that quiet stretch of coastline, the cottages nestled into the dunes — it feels worlds away. On our most recent visit, my partner and I brought his mum who was visiting from the US, and we stayed in one of the two-bedroom stone cottages. It was absolutely beautiful. The fireplace kept us cosy, and we spent slow mornings just soaking in the atmosphere. There’s so much to do right on site — I even took one of the kayaks out and went fishing in the bay! The restaurant is excellent, and the whole place is run with such warmth and care. The team make you feel like you’re right at the heart of it all. Piermont is a truly special place. We can’t recommend it enough.

We stayed at Piermont for 2 nights. It was such a peaceful place that once we arrived we didn’t leave. Staff in both reception and restaurant were kind and friendly. Definitely order the pasta making kit to cook during your stay.

The location is great, the view from the room and walk along the beach is beautiful. The service was good apart from the cocky waiter in the restaurant who seemed to think he controlled our pallet requirements. The room was ordinary in cleanliness as there was food residue on the rug in the lounge room, general lack of vacuuming everywhere throughout the Pampa Costa. The bed was hard. Extremely hard and when we asked if there was a topper or similar the simple answer was No. I think there needs to be an ability to meet the needs of those with bad back or just like a softer bed than the hard mattress we encountered. It was okay and this wasn't the first time we stayed here, but it will be our last.
