This is a great & quiet 2 bedroom cottage with a very short cut through walk to the beach. We just stayed overnight for our son’s triathlon but would have loved to stay longer. Kitchen is well set up - plenty of sitting room, and a lovely deck. Julie was fabulous to deal with, especially when awful weather conditions impacted us.
