    Beautiful cottage. We loved it! Especially the sea view :)

  • Confirmed Guest

    A very comfortable, homely and well equipped cottage with stunning views of the sea. There are plenty of things to see and do locally whilst it also feels like quite a remote place where you can really relax. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

    We had a great 3 weeks … stunning views and a great cottage … wished we could’ve stayed longer… a very well equipped kitchen with an abundance of crockery to use … the fires were amazing on a cold evening… and the sky TV was a great addition too …The only negative comment was the lack of storage in the bathrooms … maybe a couple of shelves on the walls to store toiletries would benefit the cottage
