Ideal for a family getaway, the cottage is conveniently located within easy reach of local amenities and the beach, making for a wonderful base from which to explore. Arriving at the cottage, park up in one of the off-road parking spaces and make you way into your home away from home. Two steps up lead you into the hallway where you can kick off your shoes before moving through to the well-equipped kitchen to rustle up a meal for your group.
