Rnli College

Unless you wish to become a life guard, for our purposes the Royal National Lifeboat College is a place to eat and drink, if you are a member, or the companion of a member.
The canteen is an extermely pleasant room with floor to ceiling windows, giving a panoramic view of Holes Bay.
The food is serve yourself salads, and hot food like a carvery.
I never quite know where to start, so always check out the hot food first. Meats are beautifully cooked, and sliced generously. Vegetables are always great.
The salads are always a dead cert. They vary from potatoe salad, mixed bean, carrot, beetroot, pasta salads and variatins on any salad I’ve come across.
The prices are very good as, because they are a charity, the RNLI are not allowed to profit above a certain margin.
The canteen has variously sized tables with chairs. It also has trainee life boat men.
From the centre of the canteen, a large spiral staircase takes you up to the bar. Unfortunately, alcohol is not served until after 5pm as it is a place of education. The views from up here are magnificent.
Members can use the accomadation, hostel style, for occasional use. There are several conference suites, which are really fab — I’ve interviewed in one of them.
There are a couple of viewing places to watch the training pool, where trainees get ready for stormy seas and rescue techniques.
Loos are clean and access is very good.
