    The view from the bedroom over the sea was fabulous. Sitting on the balcony having coffee with the sounds of the sea a.d the view was wonderful. The special touch of milk in the fridge as well as a sweet treat for us and poo bags and biscuits for the dog were.really thoughtful and made the break even more special. Would love to stay again.

    so much so we have re booked it for next year.

  • John

    Firstly the car park’s gravel surface meant that wheeled suit cases had to be “man handled” before reaching the paved path leading to Gull cottage. Secondly, private access to the beach was via a steep flight of steps. This precluded taking walks along the shoreline.
