Good food, relaxed atmosphere, great views over Backstairs Passage. There is an outdoor area if the weather is good and children are welcome.
Food is good and the "posh fish & chips" definitely worth trying.

This is not only a cellar door, they have good food, great views and often on weekends live music. It is family friendly. There is the opportunity to hit a few golf balls across the valley and there is a children's area.

Sightseeing
Stunning vista from above, and for the super keen a good climb down to the beach. It is a dangerous beach and only experienced swimmers or surfers should attempt to swim. It is also a spot for beach fishing off the many rocks.
