We had a week in Ball Cottage over the Easter break. Stunning weather meant that we were able to spend lots of time on nearby local walks and beaches. The cottage is so lovely - great living space for the family including a games room. I was very grateful for the multitude of crockery, glassware, pots and pans as we do a lot of cooking. Beds were vRead more comfortable and great to have a master en suite too. The courtyard garden was great for listening to the local birds and watching the bluetits nesting in the BT exchange box! We even mastered the espresso machine! Thanks for a great stay. Hide
