Lovely, warm and cosy traditional cottage. The owner (Alison) was friendly and so helpfulwith great communication. Everything you could need is provided and the fact they allow two dogs is brilliant for us. The location is wonderful on a working farm where you get to see and hear the cattle up close with a friendly morning wave from the farmers. Less than a five minute walk to the beach that can be seen from the windows. Large enclosed garden which was great for letting the pups out for a bedtime wee and I’m sure in summer it’s amazing to sit out with a glass of wine. You know it’s a great place when you try to rebook but it has no availability!!!

Perfect location close to beach and great dog friendly property with enclosed garden. Great pub yards away. This property, however, is totally unsuitable for anyone with limited mobility due to two large steps to access the bathroom. I chose this property carefully for a long overdue and much needed respite but we left after 4 nights as my poor husband, who is very weak due to cancer, had great difficulty with the steps. There was no welcome pack or dog treats as mentioned nor could I find a coffee machine, only a cafetière.
