This is a beautiful walk! The views are amazing. Honestly some of the nicest scenery I've ever laid eyes on. I did this walk with my 60 year old mother and wasn't a bother on her. Its not a tough walk at all. The steepest part is going from the car park up the road. Cant recommend this walk enough. Just stunning.

We did this walk in October 2014, in a cold but dry weather. It is absolutely lovely, with nice view on the sea. Be careful of the wind, and wear something warm with you.
Overall, the walk is well indicated.
