I returned a year later to this property with a unique, breathtaking position on the coast. I learned that it was under new management. Last time, it was understaffed and undergoing extensive renovation. The sea view room had a sea view from the door, which was okay. My room also came with front billing for the smokers and a couple of fighters who emptied into the outside area during the DJ set on Saturday night. A 03:00 finish, I didn't expect. The food was of excellent quality, the prices were up, and the portion sizes were down from a year ago. Breakfast cereals and pastries have gone, leaving a menu choice only. It was great to see it all fully staffed. On awakening, you come down to the lovely restaurant area to see newspapers, glasses, and the pub side of things not tidied in the morning. The rooms show signs of wear and tear, with significant shower room peeling and wall marks. I assume the last renovation was quick and dirty. My family enjoyed our second weekend in Cornwall, which even provided unscheduled sunshine. The bar and drinks were good, and the additional staff helped with service speed. This place would benefit so much from polishing up some of the service aspects. I also applaud them for offering karaoke and DJ sets; I assume that is not easy to come by around this location. Next time, if I realise there is music on, I would ask for a room around the back and bank a good night's sleep
