A lovely cottage in a great location for coastal walks. Although I expect a few cobwebs in an older building, unfortunately it was covered and overall attention to cleanliness wasn’t the greatest. I would however still recommend it, it was great for our weekend away with the dogs exploring the coastal paths.
