Mr Davis
Lovely cottage and in a great location, very handy having the pub next door where the food was excellent and a tea room just 10 minutes walk. Walks straight from the door and if you’re are as lucky as us the walk to the cliffs each evening to watch the sunset is a must.

We had a wonderful stay. The location is fantastic and we had everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable, everything was very clean, very spacious and well equipped. Having such a great pub across the yard was also perfect. I can’t wait to stay again.

We loved our stay here over new year. House is very clean & spacious. Great kitchen & social space as well. Brilliant being so close to the pub, food was delicious. We stayed with 3 dogs, can walk straight from the house to the coastal path. Toby, the owner, was really helpful & friendly, quick response to any queries as well. He made us feel very welcome in the pub & got us involved in their weekly quiz. Would highly recommend, we will definitely return!
