The poppies is a lovely cottage. It’s a shame that there is a restaurant directly next door.The early morning deliveries are noisy, the smell of food and also the noise from the restaurant penetrates through the walls.

We enjoyed a lovely week in this charming cottage - from grandparents to grandchildren. It is comfortable and well equipped. The decor and furnishings are beautiful, and in relaxing, calming colours. A short walk from the quayside, it lacks only any outdoor sitting space/yard or garden, and decent parking. It was a pleasure to enjoy family time watching TV together, instead of separately isolated on screens as so often happens these days.

We love Poppies snd have been 5 times now ! A real home from home , comfy beds and well equipped kitchen . We don’t mind the lack of garden as it’s only 100 yards to the quay and miles of coastal area to relax in Car park just about 50 yards away so nice and convenient
