It is not possible to park briefly to unload and load luggage. There was nowhere to put food away apart from the fridge, 36 mugs, many, many glasses and 3 China sets are not required for 4 people.

A really comfortable and clean house in a great location, with effective central heating and good furniture throughout. The lack of nearby parking and the steep steps to the house were a bit of a nuisance, but we got used to them. It was difficult with a buggy and child to carry, however. The conservatory was normally very pleasant, but the workmenRead more walking through the garden to access the house next door were an unexpected intrusion. Hide

Lovely well fitted out, clean cottage in a great location. There is the Nine deli opposite and The Canteen within 5 mins walk for great food and coffee both before you get into town. Walk left into town or right and head to the pier, it's. great spot that's easy to get in and out of town for.

The cottage is very well situated to the town centre and sea front. Parking is available in a nearby side street. Unloading can be done from just in front of Bay Hotel. Kitchen was quite well equipped and beds were comfy. The heating was efficient and needed in the cold easterly winds at Christmas time. The property is currently on the marketRead more. The advertised open fire wasnt functioning! Lovely conservatory space to sit in, during warmer weather. Hide

Kintyre is sitauted a gentle walk from the main shopping area, making it very convenient for shopping and keeping fit, The lovely garden is a sun trap and out of the wind, so could be a place to spend lazy days when weather too hot even for the beach. The house is well equipped with everything you need for catering for a family of 4 with a goodRead more diswasher and laundry facilities. The Conservatory is great to sit in on cool mornings and warm afternoons. It can get hot, so beware of tiny feet on the floor. Hide

Shame parking was not closer. Overall the cottage was perfect and a nice touch was the illuminated Christmas tree in the conservatory. Superb garden and I should imagine well used in the summer months.

We had a lovely stay at Kintyre. Walks straight from the door step with many pubs to call in at en route for a refreshing drink or meal. A lovely park is around the corner from the house to stop off at on your way to the beach. Comfortable, well equipped and great for a family of 4 to spend time with by the sea.
