    We went to the restaurant in shorts and t.shirts and everyone seemed very relaxed about the dress code -if there was one in place. Food excellent, staff brilliant and the setting is superb.

    I had no problems with smokers at breakfast. Maybe we got lucky. We always ate out in the evenings though.
