“The commanding position on the cliffs offers truly magnificent bay views, a consistent highlight that elevates the stay. Service across the board is notably friendly and attentive, and the spa, while an additional charge, is well-regarded. While the walk to the harbour demands a certain stamina due to the terrain, the overall charm and quality of the food, especially breakfast, make it a compelling option, though it's worth noting the gym facilities have been discontinued.”
