What a fabulous place to stay, both accommodation and location! The apartment was very comfortable and well equipped. We contacted the lady on the number given for help and she was lovely, extremely helpful. I highly recommend this property and cottages.com.

Very comfortable, well equipped apartment with a lovely view out over the bay - apart from the outside of the windows, everything was very clean.We did experience some difficulty operating the oven, and the toaster didn't work, but relatively minor issues.However, the 'arrival instructions' could be improved - they appeared very confusing when received, but we hoped things would be clearer once on site; but they weren't! Including references to Jetty Cottages as well as The Maltings confused things, it wasn't clear which was the front entrance to the latter and which was the back, nor which car entrance and parking area should be used.But, overall, a great place to stay - we loved the jetty cottage and the outside decking area as well as the apartment itself.
