We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wish we could have stayed for longer. The cottage was cosy and, although I note what some of the reviews have said, the facilities were good and the cottage was clean and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again-a lovely place!

Excellent stay. Highly recommend if you have dogs. I have 2 large breed dogs and totally enjoyed their stay, the perfect long enclosed garden, easy to clean floors (didn't allow them upstairs)Lovely big comfy bed , wardrobe with lots of hangers, lovely bathroom.A great welcome and welcome pack.Milk/biscuits, a nice touch.Very friendly people in the area and went to the pub twice/sat outside in the sunshine.Went to lastra restaurant. Great food.Coastal walk pretty much straight from the property.2 BBQs during a 3 night stay.Always managed to park on the front.You do need to be able to complete a parallel park manoeuvre, which I don't struggle with at all.Was a little anxious from reading previous reviews but I couldn't fault the property or our stay in any way at all .:)

Back garden is a mess.very untidy and unsafe.Front garden a mess with a full bin when we got there. Also rubbish in front garden.broken front gate.Very poor selection of utensils in draw. ie sharp knifes.knifes and forks very poor quality. Outside furniture needs replacing. Broken fence at bottom of garden. Garden needs weeding and broken slates is the wrong covering for the floor. Propertie was cold even with 3 electric heaters. We lit the log burner but that was a waste of time at giving heat out.Overall I can say about the property the photos are not up to date. Only good part is the shower.
