Lovely cottage, ideal area for coast and countryside. Only thing missing is somewhere to dry wet clothes.

It would have been nice to have had 2 bath towels each. We couldn’t find any instructions on how to use cooker and dishwasher and they would have been useful but we worked it out in the end. A lovely bright clean cottage and we had a lovely week there.
