The property is generally well-maintained and clean, with several guests commenting positively on its cleanliness. However, a few noted areas for improvement, such as under the beds and the shower seal, slightly lowering the score.
The location is appreciated for its proximity to local walks and amenities, and the ease of exploring the island. Some guests mentioned road noise and parking challenges, which slightly affected the score.
Guests have praised the comfortable beds and the cosy feel of the property, indicating a high level of comfort. The only minor drawback mentioned was the size of the sofa for larger groups.
The property is well-equipped, with guests satisfied with the kitchen and other amenities. Points were deducted for maintenance issues like a leaking radiator and the need for clearer directions to the property.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the thoughtfulness of the host, so this category cannot be scored.

Plus it's next to the main road so was a little bit of a disappointment with our westie. We didn't use it. The public car park is about 50 yards away but down a hill so be aware of that if you have any health challenges (I have). Also we could not pay the car parking by cash and had to do it online. I had to set up an account to get receipts as car parking is notorious for wrongful penalty charging. You couldn't get receipts without setting up an account. All that said the cottage was very clean, the beds very comfortable, the shower was great and the kitchen very well kitted out. I think you'd struggle to have four adults comfortable on the corner sofa for long but there was just two of us and overall we enjoyed our stay.

Lovely walks locally too, we saw dolphins near the port. Lots of local amenities. The house has everything that you would need, comfy beds, massive towels, well equipped kitchen. The radiator in the bathroom leaks, we put a towel under it. The cleanliness wasnât as high as other properties we have stayed in, we cleaned before we left and under the beds and sofa wasnât a build up of our 4 night stay. We would come back and visit again!
