With a clifftop setting looking out across Smerwick Harbour to the triple peaks of the Three Sisters, the Old Pier enjoys the perfect sunset location. Bedrooms are decorated with bright summery colours and local artwork, and breakfast is served in a dining room that makes the most of that superlative view. Evening meals available by prior arrangement.
