Although it's only a five minute walk from the centre, South Haven is very quiet and peaceful. Would recommend.

A wonderful cottage. The amenities would have been excellent if the dishwasher had been working. The office staff were very kind and helpful but were unable to have a replacement installed during our visit. This did not spoil our stay. We would certainly recommend South Haven.
