Overall, the cottage offers a delightful and relaxing holiday experience.
Most guests found the cottage spotlessly clean and well-presented, with several reviews specifically praising cleanliness. However, a few guests mentioned issues with bedding and towels smelling musty or appearing less than fresh, which slightly lowers the score.

The cottage is described as warm, cosy, and comfortable, with underfloor heating and spacious rooms. Most guests slept well, though some found the sofa bed uncomfortable and noted the property can get warm in summer due to limited window ventilation.

this was our third stay, we like the isolation but proximity to shops etc and the bird reserve at Gibraltar Point. The accommodation is warm and cosy, just right for the cold winter days.The only thing I would request is that before our next holiday in 2027, please could you provide a new pair of kitchen scissors, the ones in the rack keep falling apart!
