Lovely cottage very comfortable, great location. Just a pity no off street parking. We were lucky that our visit was out of season otherwise I think it could be problematic. No outside area so not dog friendly when they need to go out in the early hours although the harbour is only a stone throw away. Had a lovely stay here.

Lovely little cottage. Only downside is there is no parking, and all the side streets are private parking only.
