Ambience, views and food in the restaurant were exceptional. Very good staff so great job Wayne and the Team!
Everything was very comfortable with great views over the bay. The bedrooms were very clean and comfortable but the furniture was just a little bit tired looking. Plans are in hand for new bedrooms.

Breakfast: excellent and friendly service (as it was for all our meals). There could have been a wider variety of breakfast cereals (muesli, nuts, seeds) for those who don’t want a cooked breakfast. Enjoyed the evening meals (wide choice of starters and mains) but as we were staying during the peak berry season fresh fruit would be a healthy alternative to the delicious looking creamy sweets. Nice bedroom with very comfy bed and superb view.
Shower/wc area very small but smart and clean. Everything else was excellent.
