Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviews consistently mention that the cottage is exceptionally clean, with several guests highlighting the spotless condition upon arrival. The hot tub cleanliness is also commended, contributing to a high score in this category.

The location is generally praised for being convenient for sightseeing and close to local pubs and beaches. However, one review suggests the description of proximity to a pub is inaccurate, slightly lowering the score.

Guests find the cottage comfortable, with mentions of modern comfy furnishings and a cosy atmosphere. Some minor points about bed size and water pressure are noted, but overall comfort is rated highly.

Facilities are well-regarded, especially the hot tub, which is a hit with many guests. Some reviews mention issues with water pressure and a lack of enclosed garden for dogs, which affects the score slightly.

While the reviews reflect positive experiences, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

    The views were spectacular and the whole surroundings were very well maintained and we loved it that much we would recommend and go again. This property is a credit to the owners.

  • Darren

    A nice mix of old barn style fixtures and gadgets (Netflix and internet) and hot tub is a great bonus at the end of the day. Main bed for be a bit too soft otherwise a great find.

    Staff were friendly, the jacuzzi was wonderful and lovely and clean. The cottage was very clean and adequate as we were out most days. The garden area was nice and had both shade and sun.
