Gulls nest was a lovely place to stay, had everything you would need. Very close to many lovely places to visit. Especially close to Quay to do the boat trip to see the seals, a must do. Only thing I would say is the instructions to find the accommodation was not clear and took us a while to find as it's off the main road.
