We loved our stay, accommodation was spotless and comfortable. We stayed in February and had snow but we were warm and cosy. Beautiful location right on the beach.

Nice cottage located on a holiday park. Great views towards the sea, and virtually sites on top of the cliff.Plenty of room for two, but would be a bit small for four, especially in winter.Not allowed in until 17.00 and having to leave by 09.00 meant that a lot of valuable holiday time was missed out on. Again, especially in winter when it is dark well before you can commence your stay.Shame we could not get the dvd player to work as there is an interesting collection of dvd to be enjoyed. It was a good thing we brought a roll of toilet paper as the only roll in the cottage ran out on Christmas Eve, after the shop in the village had closed!
