It was a lovely cottage, lovely location. The down side is the oven and hob need a good clean. Tap on the sink moved all over the place, needs attention. Possibly some nice recliner garden chairs

Short Stay

The property was conveniently placed to walk to the local beach, which was quiet and vast. There is a small camp site shop and chippy in the opposite fields, with other larger shops within a short drive. We managed to park both cars out the front, but the rear space was quite tight for larger vehicles. Overall, a good stay and not far from the local attractions. Thanks
