Excellent Quite Property

We really enjoyed our stay at Caths Cottage. The property is reasonably close proximity to the main shops and has the added bonus of the park adjoining the rear boundary. The accommodation was good and served its purpose. We would love to come back.

Peaceful getaway

We loved our stay! The pictures don’t do it justice, it is such a beautiful little bach, less than 5 minutes drive to the beach. The kitchen has everything you need, and the air conditioner was a lifesaver on the hot summer evenings. 10/10 would reccomend.

Peaceful location and beautiful house

Cottage is lovely and clean, and decor is very stylish and relaxing. It was great to get up and sit in the conservatory at breakfast with the sun streaming in. The house has hvac, but we didn't need it. The sun in the day was enough to warm the house at night, and it is very cosy.

We had a lovely stay at Cath’s cottage. It is well set up with everything that you need and is quiet and private. Easy drive to the beach. Added bonus of aircon for the hot summer days. Fully fenced so it’s great for young children. Thanks for having us!
