The garden is enclosed and very pet friendly. Being in the village means it's very quiet (which suited us) but only a 7 minute walk to shops and no more than 15 to beach,arcades and restaurants. 10 out of 10 stay, cheers.

This is one of the best cottages we have stayed in. The cottage is immaculately clean and has everything you could need. Very comfortable beds, good quality towels provided. The enclosed garden was lovely to sit in and was ideal for our Labrador. We will definitely return to this property again for a future break, the location is excellent for exploring the coast, with a pub across the road, which sells very nice food and is dog friendly. I couldnât fault this cottage it had everything we needed. We travelled with our twelve year old granddaughter, who did mention a couple of things, she would have liked a mirror in the twin room and a blind /curtain on the bathroom window, but very minor things, she said the bed was the comfiest she had slept on. We hope to stay again soon.
