Looking for a coastal hotel in UK

[CeliaFate]

4 of us (2 adults, 2 kids) for 4 nights. We'd pay up to £1200 total, inc of dinner, bed and breakfast. We live in the country so I'd like to stay by the coast. Can anyone recommend a hotel please? (don't want self-catering, I want a break )

I'd recommend the Esplanade Hotel in Cornwall (near Crantock beach and Fistral Beach). It's right on the beach and i reckon it's probably a bit cheaper than your budget so you can spend on spa treatments at their sister spa, Fistral Spa ;)

We've just got back and we loved it!!
