I believe the answer is:

bittersweet

(Other definitions for bittersweet that I've seen before include "Evoking both pleasure and pain" , "Pleasant but also painful" , "Climber" , "Arousing pleasure tinged with pain" , "Giving both pleasure and pain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Sun and The Mirror.
