Very good and we would be happy to stay again, although wouldn't have the steak.
Pros:

Staff especially. Room was ok and breakfasts were good. Location was very good for what we wanted to do.

Cons:

Parking was very tight, but reasonable parking nearby as long as you only parked during certain hours.
I had a sirloin steak in the restaurant. There were no steak knives!!!

Fab location right near lovely coast path.
Pros:

Fab location just round corner from lovely coast path & headland. We werent expecting that! Food & cocktail bar were lovely.

Cons:

The write up said there was free parking in the sideroad but the council are now charging & you have to pay everwhere around the area! This needs to be clear on the website! We were only there 1 night so it didnt affect us too much but if we had been longer that would be a pain & expensive!

Unauthorised transaction
Pros:

Lovely hotel and restaurant. They also have a lovely photo book of fluffy friends that have stayed, its quite cute.

Cons:

They have acknowledged allowing a 3rd party to authorise my card and are fighting with me about fixing the issue. I've had to get my bank involved over a silly mistake on their part that could have been sorted out with a quick apology, returning the unauthorised transaction on my card and contacting the 3rd party to cover the the bill. Instead I'm expected to fix the problem myself.

Beautiful location and views. Not confident its value for money
Pros:

The views from the room

Cons:

The lack of parking, the huge gap under the bedroom door, meaning on a Sunday morning we weee woken by those that wanted to get up early
