My stay at Far Horizons was lovely due to the location and charming atmosphere, but there were some issues with the service and breakfast arrangements. The views from the hotel were stunning, especially from the sea view room. However, the promised breakfast was a bit misleading as it involved vouchers for nearby cafes. Overall, I appreciated the hospitality but felt some improvements could be made.
