Overall for the price the cottage was comfortable and cosy, the underfloor heating was very nice. The cottage is a little tired and in need of maintenance in places and cleaning was not of a great standard. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful which was great.

He did point out an issue with the floor as it had some serious dips in the centre of the main room.

There was a really nice enclosed garden with toys and a sand pit for the children, which was very safe and well thought out. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and we had sea views. The beach was only a short drive away. We had a lovely time, thank you.
