Beautiful scenery. Cottage well appointed. Access could be challenging with large steps up from the parking area. Host friendly and welcoming.

Nice location small house/cottage

It was a beautiful view and really homely & cozy cottage. Great for 2-4 people. The people who own the property are right next door which was not specified but other than that it’s very private. We really enjoyed our stay here ☺️.

Thanks Tyler for your review. The house above the cottage is our vacation home, which we try to visit as often as work allows us to, however we were not there during the duration of your stay. I will amend our listing to reflect this variation. We are more than happy to have you revisit anytime as you left the cottage in great order. When we are onsite we also offer e-bike hirage, darts, spa and a pool table for your pleasure.

Beautiful country cottage

This little cottage, just a few minutes drive to Bryans beach, is a gem. Set high on a ridge, with wonderful views, it has been thoughtfully set-up to provide everything you need for a short break away. The beds are really comfortable, with quality linen provided. Karen and Kurt were very welcoming and generous hosts. Highly recommended.
