We had a lovely time. House is very well situated and we had lots of lovely walks down the beach. The house is very quirky with themed rooms. We liked it albeit not our personal taste. Owners had left books, games and suggested places to visit.Thoroughly recommend the sawmill cafe near wast water. Lovely food and location.Also had a nice tripe to Whitehaven, when a tall ship was in port. Had Sunday lunch in the Vagabond pub. Very nice
