Guests have mentioned the presence of cobwebs, spiders, and a food waste bin issue, indicating room for improvement in cleanliness. However, one review notes the cottage was very clean, suggesting inconsistencies.
The location is highly regarded for its quietness, sea views, and access to local attractions and the coastal path, making it an ideal spot for a peaceful retreat.
The cottage is described as comfortable, with a particularly comfy lounge and bedroom. The garden adds to the comfort by being a sun trap.
While the cottage is well-equipped and guests are generally satisfied, there are suggestions for additional kitchen items, a larger TV, and a bathroom bin. The need for better kitchen equipment and clearer access to the garden are noted.

The cottage is delightful and it's location is quiet and peaceful. There are lovely views of the sea and it is ideally located for access to many attractions. However, there were just a few things that could have been better:Provide tea towels in the kitchen Additional chopping boards for meat/vegetables/bread The TV needs to be connected to the the arial!Finally, there were quite a lot of cobwebs and spiders in the rooms and the food waste bin was full of maggots.
