Main living area was larger than it looks in photo and bedrooms very comfy just mind your head on the beams. Loved that it had an room to dry of wet boots and clothes. Very dog friendly too. Any little thing was no instructions about the rubbish and if needed to sort out the recycling so we took those bits home with us.

Very attractive bedrooms with warm blankets and cushions offering a modern yet country level of style and comfort. Books for all ages, DVDs and board games offer the âfamily homeâ feel, with maps and information box to guide you around the area. We left our own suggestion of a delicious eatery which gladly delivers! We didnât have the weather for the garden furniture but the two patios offer welcome spaces for morning and evening sunshine. Some unfenced steep drops so upper garden unsuitable for younger children without supervision. Also slate floors and open stairs inside so unsuitable for toddlers or just about to walk-ers. Super warm oil central heating and wood burning stove; a small quantity of kindling and logs supplied, with papers and matches. You will need to bring your own logs for a longer stay, available from garages on your way into town. Well worth it if youâd like the atmosphere but snug even without. Plenty of bath and hand towels, pillows, spare bedding and cushions. Single tea towel, jay cloth and washing up sponge supplied. Hand soaps and washing up liquid. No kitchen spray* or cif type product found to enable that hygienic finish after meals. *I wouldnât usually pack those. Usual be ushes, dustpan and brush and vacuum cleaner available plus hair dryer and travel iron in bedroom drawers. Clothes airer and washing machine. Boiler room with space to dry. Sufficient crockery, glasses, cutlery and saucepans etc. for the majority of holiday self-catering needs. Very good extractor fan and fan oven, microwave, kettle and toaster. Very small, less recent fridge freezer. No dishwasher. We would recommend this accommodation for a small family or couple having a car to travel around. Bring all your essentials. **Easier to find from seafront direction on your first try!**

We visited in December and not great weather. The cottage was easy to heat. Lots of space and all very clean. The lounge rug is a little shabby and the garden was untidy...being two gardeners that was something we'd notice but in general it was a perfect get away location.
