Fabulous location and a little tricky to find, but once you n ow its there its dead easy. Dont plan on cooking anything as its just too small, but with such lovely restaurants around why would you want to cook?

I spent two nights in Salty Sam's, it had everything I needed, there was milk, tea bags and biscuits kindly supplied, I didnt know so I brought my own, I did snaffle a few biscuits though. The cottage is down a twitten, very peaceful but two minutes from being in the centre of things, so the best of both worlds.
