Unfortunately the cooking range broke down before we moved in so we didn't have cooking facilities other than a slow cooker, microwave or air fryer which did not work for our planned meals. As it was also the heating for the kitchen it was cold in there which made the lounge chilly that was right next door. The house was well placed and the beds were very comfortable

Very comfortable house in good location. 5 minute walk to harbour and shops. High enough to enjoy views over the harbour. Although no parking space it was easy to load and unload. Would recommend using the stay car park. We obtained a weeks parking for a very reasonable rate. It was only 10 minute walk from house . Would recommend staying here.
