We loved the coziness and locality of the house, beds were super comfy, fish were biting so my husband had a ball and our grand daughter thrived with the fresh air, sun, water and sandSad to leaveThank you for a great week
The front door was a bit fiddly, there was a musty old house smell when you enter but aside from that it was a lovely, clean, and cozy cottage. Good for the family. I like that there were books, games and DVDs for entertainment but the Smart TV allows for logging in to Netflix as well. There’s wifi available. There was no dishwasher but the kitchen was otherwise complete with all you need for feeding the family. Overall it was a great property in a quiet area so near to the town centre.
Nice property with a bit of character at a convenient location and great for families. Very clean and with all the necessities, plus extras including books and games. The outside entertainment area would be great in summer. The check in/out process is very efficient and service was excellent. Would definitely stay here again.
