Excellent dining experience and food, really good staff and service. Excellent decor in room. Ventilation in room not to our liking though. Very warm and only way to cool the temperature (after turning radiator down) or get more air was to open window as no air conditioning at least in our room. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.

Great night away

Lovely hotel, our first time staying here. Brilliant atmosphere for dinner with live music, cocktails and great food. Also enjoyed lunch at the lookout restaurant. Staff were fantastic, really friendly and helpful. Beautiful sunrise this morning over the cliffs. Very relaxing break.

We enjoyed our stay, lovely venue in a great location with amazing views. The spa facility isn’t fantastic and when booking our stay, we did not realise that you need to pay another £20 per per person per hour to use the spa facilities. This seemed very expensive for what it was and I think it’s unfair to only get the facilities for an hour. Plus the spa is only open until 6pm so it really limits our spa experience. I wouldn’t be in a rush back due to this.

Good in parts

The bedroom had limited natural light but despite this the decor was mainly dark green This made for a drab feeling. The same colours in the dining room and bar work because of the excellent natural light. The bedroom was much too warm and it found it impossible to adjust the thermostat. And the window lock was jammed so i couldnt open it.On the positive side the staff were pleasant and efficient and the bar and dining rooms are perfect. We only ate breakfast and the food was first class. Looking forward for a chance to enjoy lunch/dinner.
