Guests say

Guests consistently praise this charming cottage for its exceptional location just steps from a beautiful beach, making it ideal for relaxing getaways and dog walks. The property is described as comfortable, well-equipped, and attractively decorated, with many appreciating its warmth and cleanliness. Several reviewers mention thoughtful touches such as a welcome pack. While some minor issues were noted, such as limited ambient lighting, occasional maintenance concerns, and parking, the overall experience is highly positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Most guests found the property exceptionally clean and well-presented, with one review describing it as immaculate. However, a single review mentioned a dirty front door, windows needing cleaning, and a damp smell from towels, which slightly lowers the score.

The location is universally praised, with guests loving the proximity to the beach and the convenience for walks and local amenities. The only minor note is the road outside, which can be busy, but this does not detract from the overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Guests found the cottage comfortable, with cosy beds, lounge furniture, and effective heating. Some minor points were raised about slippery stairs and a lack of ambient lighting, but overall comfort is rated highly.

The cottage is generally well-equipped, with central heating, a woodburner, and kitchen essentials. Some guests noted the absence of items like a teapot, trays, and jugs, and mentioned maintenance issues such as rough parking, a floodgate at the back door, and personal items in cupboards.

Several guests appreciated the welcome pack of goodies and the dog-friendly approach. Please note that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

    Comfortable beds and lounge furniture. Cushions for garden furniture detracted from dining room and kitchen also cleaning products vacuum sweeping brush in kitchen. There is a floodgates on the back door making it difficult to access outside. Inside of property clean.Damp towels had been placed in a cupboard in downstairs toilet causing a damp smell. Personal items in a number of cupboards. Front door dirty not a good 1st impression also windows need cleaning. The parking space at the rear is rough ground. There is an old fridge and rubble. Only 1 tea towel for a week.The photos of this property is somewhat misleading
