lovely coastal retreat
interleading rooms cliff path sun room
i found interleading rooms accommodated my family well the views were amazing the cliff path access provided easy routes to shops and restaurants i especially liked afternoon tea in the sun room staff catered to our needs promptly and efficiently. i savored tea and scones there the light enhanced the experience. the staff provided excellent service .
the breakfast buffet selection felt limited this contrasted with the overall high standard of the accommodation i expected more variety considering the hotel's reputation the reduction in options affected the overall dining experience.

i really loved the beautiful rooms, they are so well-kept. breakfast included a huge choice, a true feast for the senses. i stayed for three nights, and i didn't want for nothing.
the chef apparently lacked an appreciation of flavour. the fish of the day didn't correspond with the description.
