Beautiful quiet location. Lovely cottage. Difficult road down to bay. Comfy beds. Need some bigger cooking pots with lids and a blind for front bedroom. Chairs a bit dodgy. Shower not fantastic. Well supplied with towels and kitchen needs like oil, tea, coffee and sugar. Sad to be going home which means overall a great cottage and area.
