    Sea Shanty was everything we hoped for and more! Cannot recommend this lovely property enough. We will definitely be returning again next year.

  • Mary-jo

    Is there a way to have a toilet in the top bedroom as you have a bath in the room. We enjoyed our stay and we were well looked after by owner who put a touch for us to use because the weather had done damage to the roof.
