This is an excellent property, well placed for exploring the area. The welcome pack was the most extensive we have received at any property we have visited previously. We would highly recommend this cottage.

The cottage was very comfortable. Welcome pack was exceptional. The cottage was ideally situated, we visited four beaches all excellent. The lovely garden was a nice bonus and our grandchild enjoyed playing in here. We were a family of six of varying ages and although a cot was provided, there were no stair gates available at the cottage just to be aware. If I had one criticism of the cottage, it would be that the second floor ensuite bathroom although spacious there was nowhere to store your toiletries We would definitely stay again and recommend
