This heart-warming retreat is ideal for a couple or a small family seeking to explore this countryside setting yet within striking distance of the glorious stretch of coastline, with a vast array of attractions and amenities to suit all ages and tastes.

  • Christine

    The cottage was great and the garden was brilliant for our little dog. The view from the conservatory was beautiful and it was a truly tranquil and relaxing place to stay. If we revisit the area we will certainly book the cottage again.

  • Julia

    Difficulty getting hot water to sink in bathroom. Pillows in single bedroom flat and uncomfortable. The rest was fine and we enjoyed the peace and quiet. Well equipped with everything you need for a holiday long stay or short. Mrs. Widger was informative and helpful and plenty of information of surrounding areas of where to visit, eat etc. was provided in a folder and booklets.

  • Patricia

    The cottage was spotless and comfortable. Probably the best one we've stayed at.
