Great hotel in an amazing location, shame about the horny bull
Pros:

Amazing location, gorgeous views from the bedroom, breakfast was great as was the food in the pub. The waitress that served breakfast (forgotten her name) was wonderful, such a lovely lady and couldn’t do enough for everyone.

Cons:

There was a bull that was ‘in season’ that mooed very loudly every 5 minutes throughout the whole entire night for our second night. Wasn’t an issue our first night and hopefully isn’t a recurring issue but we were very tired the next day
