A lovely cottage, right in the centre of the old town. Comfy beds, 2 proper sofas in the lounge so 4 adults can all sit down for the evening (I say this as many cottages seem to sleep 4 and seat 3!). The parking space is a real bonus and the permit you need to display is easy to spot once you're in the cottage. You can walk straight down the old custom steps to the sea front or turn left out the cottage and walk up some gentle slopes into Scarbs, we are a mixed age group (40's-70s) and we didn't have any issues but if you're not keen on stairs or slopes then perhaps book a holiday in Holland instead .... as Scarbs isn't flat

The cottage was superb and I would definitely recommend it and stay at it again. Just feel very disappointed that it wasn't made clear that you needed to display a parking permit and ended up with a £70 parking fine.

Lovely property in a great location. Everything you need is supplied including internet and a smart tv. Parking is also a huge benefit. Might not suit those with poor or limited mobility due to steps to the front or hilly walk but we both managed in our 60s just taking our time. Highly recommend.
