lighthouse stay

sea viewfriendly staffcomfortable bedfood selection
the location was special with my room facing the sea directly below the lighthouse. dinner in the hotel restaurant was delicious, and the staff were very friendly. i found the king-size bed in my cozy room very comfortable and the blackout curtains ensured a good night's sleep (even during a gale). the restaurant's food selection was great.
the road leading up to the lighthouse showed some signs of wear.

the owners were attentive and even set up a dinner table in the lounge, so i could have my dog with me. rachel, the waitress, was particularly amusing and helpful.

I enjoyed the five-course dinner menu. The monkfish starter and chocolate soufflé were delicious. the chef explained his experiments with flavours and locally sourced ingredients (a nice personal touch). the alcohol was reasonably priced.

five-course menunoticeable potholeslukewarm reception
the evening meal was excellent , with a tasty five-course menu.
the hotel looked uncared for upon arrival , with noticeable potholes in the drive. a musty smell greeted me inside , and the reception felt lukewarm. the room lacked practical touches like a bedside table , and the bathroom was dated and without necessary amenities like hooks or shelves.
