Just spent a lovely week at Tinkers cottage. Very well equipped kitchen, good bathroom, comfortable furnishings. Be aware of steep stairs and access to further bedrooms. It was perfect for two, but would also suit a family with not too younger children. Positioned in Main Street, easy walk to beach, pub nearby serving food, also beach cafe for great full english or lunch. Lovely walks from doorstep . Lots to discover. ,
