I worked here in the summer of 1968 as waitress in the restaurant (and afternoon teas by the pool!) Great memories, lots of fun with my friend Pat Wathey, working hard all day then dancing the night away and then having to climb in through a downstairs bedroom window after curfew!! A lovely hotel, my first taste of luxury, albeit not as a guest. Such a shame I cant revisit.

HOLIDAYS, WITH MY UNCLE HARRY HUXTABLE AND AUNTY LILL - AND THEIR SIX LOVELY DAUGHTERS; PLAYING WITH BRIDGET ROSEVEAR AND HER BROTHER PETER FROM THE TOBACCONIST/BARBER SHOP , SWIMMING IN THE HARBOUR AND TOWAN BEACH. THE BOWLING GREEN, HAWKEYS COACHES, RAWLE'S FISH AND CHIPS, AND OH SO MANY MORE!

Spent many happy hours on Killacourt Putting Green - late '60s/early '70s. Remember when it was 6d. a round & my best round, I think, was 34! There was a choice of putter - the traditional or the modern green-handled flathead.
