lighthouse experience

extensive selection friendly staff first class food lovely views
the staff are friendly and the wine and whisky selection is extensive. the food selection, service, and quality were first class, a must do half board option. the views are lovely, particularly on a clear night when you can see the lighthouses.
the exterior of the hotel looks a little worn, and some public areas show their age.

I enjoyed the flavourful five-course dinner in the intimate dining room prepared by the excellent chef. Breakfast offered a tasty start the next morning. The large tv lounge in the suite was perfect. The owners were cute and friendly.
The artwork around the place was tastefully done however I found some peeling paintwork.

lumpy bed long service
the breakfast was ok (i mean, it filled a hole).
The room was outdated. the bed reminded me of sleeping on a bag of rocks, and the television was practically microscopic. it took ages for the food to arrive. I was halfway to starvation.

the scenery was beautiful and the service was pleasant.
the front of the hotel seemed uncared for with large potholes in the drive and dead flowers outside. a musty smell greeted me upon entry , and the welcome was lukewarm. the bathroom seemed unacceptable considering the price i paid , and the shower was cold.

Dinner was acceptable. I guess i didn't starve.
the road to this place tested my car's suspension severely.. i swear i aged ten years navigating those potholes. the room felt less like a lighthouse keeper's cottage and more like a forgotten storage unit.
