Beautiful cottage well equipped and very comfortable. Owner is on hand for anything you need . The hot tub is very relaxing. The field for the dogs was just perfect all totally safe and enclosed; the sea views are just amazing. The surrounding area is stunning for beaches and towns. Pub and shop very close, downside is pub has restricted opening hours and days. Also the Cottage is located on a very busy trunk road with fast moving traffic, not helped by two noisy manhole covers located near to the cottage (the owner has reported this to the council and they are marked up for repair.
