A lovely, compact cottage in a fabulous location, with just about everything you need. Less than a minute from the sea front, a few steps away from a pub, and ice-cream parlour and a fabulous chippy what more could you want? Clean, comfortable and full of character, with a fabulous courtyard that was perfect for the dogs to run about in, and a wondRead moreerful space to sit at the table and read or eat a meal. A really enjoyable stay, thank you. Hide

Perfect location. Very clean and everything you could possibly want was there. Welcome pack was a lovely surprise. The property is small but it works well. Would recommend it and happily stay there again. What's not to like, pub one way, fish and chips the other and ice cream across the road!!
