The cottage was lovely & had everything you'd need. The welcome pack was a nice touch. We were lucky to have good weather & was able to make the most of the garden. There were good facilities for our dog, including a hose outside to wash the sea, sand & occasional mud off. The cottage is approx half a hour to most attractions. There are also walks Read moredirect from the property. The hosts Fee & Mark were really welcoming & happy to help with any queries. If you're looking for tranquility, the sound of horses passing by & beautiful birdsong then this is the place for you. Hide

We had a most enjoyable holiday. Most of that success was due to the owners consideration and the quality of the accommodation. They could not have been more helpful and kind - from their generous welcome pack to unexpected bike and trailer storage. The owners were most welcoming hosts.
