What a great cottage in a lovely village location.Close to a beach and pub which are excellent.A very good level of amenities in the cottage and used on our holiday to a more than satisfactory outcome.We found the driveway very tight for our vehicle where we could not park and exit the vehicle without a struggle..Would definitely recommend to others as it ticks all the boxes for an enjoyable stay.

Our 4th time staying in Harbour Cottage. It feels like home from home. The Cottage is comfortable, clean, and well equipped and the enclosed garden is great for our Labrador Rosie. Everything we need for a relaxing holiday is there. Winterton is a beautiful picture postcard village with a fabulous beach, local stores and cafe's, and the Fisherman's Return inn serving great food.
