In a quiet and peaceful location on a quiet road. There is a lane leading down to a small beach where you can get a nice swim when the tide is in. Anita is very kind and responsive. I left my cardigan behind and she posted it back to me. Overall I would highly recommend Sugarbush.

Absolutely loved it. The back garden with views of the hills and the sea was beautiful. We spent a lot of time in the sunroom and the garden. The kids loved the house as they had plenty of space to run around. Good location between Allihees and Eyeries. I would definitely recommend this house!

Sugarbush cottage was excellent. Our favourite aspect was the wonderful view from the sun room over the bay, fields and hills. The owner was extremely helpful and provided us with lots of useful information about the local area as well as leaving us some welcome scones on our arrival. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends.
