Lovely Cottage and was amazed at how equipped the cottage was. I brought a few things from home which I didn't need to use in the end. Great location as it is just on the end of the high street. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

The cottage was spotlessly clean and very well appointed. Even including rechargeable torches. The private parking was a definite bonus. The location is ideal for the shops and restaurants. We were 2 couples and having 2 bathrooms was ideal. I would highly recommend Caraway Cottage.

Cottage was very comfortable and clean. Suited us well as 2 couples taking a break together.

The cottage suited our family holiday perfectly. We were three generations and the location, which included generous parking, though a few minutes walk to the beach, meant that we were in very easy reach of everything from shops and restaurants to a fantastic playing field for our grandchildren.
