There was everything and more needed for a wonderful stay.It was appreciated having a welcome pack of eggs and milk, as well as tea and coffee sachets.The cottage is handy to other places on the coast with no long distances to travel.All in all, a very quiet, peaceful and restful week!

We first stayed at Well Cottage about 6 years ago and this is one of reasons why returned and stayed last week for 7 nights. Cottage is so cozy, very clean and massive back garden. The village is lovely and not too far away from other villages and seaside towns. Would return.
