thermostatic valves radiator noise
the breakfast was great, specifically the sea views were wonderful (i love the sea!).
The shower was difficult. I could not control the temperature easily and the room was very hot when i arrived. adjusting the thermostatic valves created significant radiator noise. this made it quite uncomfortable

high price wine price
The hotel location overlooks a golf course. This aspect was acceptable. (I enjoyed the view).
The food price seemed quite high. A bottle of Chardonnay was priced at £26, which I found excessive. I am not rushing back due to this cost.
