Reviews
"Beautifully equipped cottage but still retaining it's old world charm. Very well laid out with all you could want. Great base for touring or just to sit and read overlooking the sea and enjoy complete down time. Ideal for children with beach so near and the lawn so spacious and secure for little ones to scramble around. Have visited this cottage many times, in the past and always loved it.......... Local shops have everything you need, so no necessity to go further afield unless you ant to."
