Extremely well appointed holiday cottage. There was nothing we needed that hadn't been provided. It was clean and well kept. The location is ideal. Close to the town, train station and beach. The road is narrow and the parking space is tight but we were able to park our car in it.

Kitchen equipment outstanding. I gave a low score as the property has no means of giving you a through breeze in the hot weather and so the accommodation became unbearable to relax in. There was one fan but seriously need to consider providing more- or getting the windows to open above stairs and on the side wall. If it was my property it would have to have air conditioning upstairs to work.Would do a return visit in the winter though.

Beautiful cottage, every home comfort. Well situated for crescent park and glen valley gardens . The owner is a very helpful should you need any assistance just a quick phone call away. Mariners Terrace is nice and quiet,yet just a few streets away from the main shopping area. All in all a lovely renovated cottage making for a very relaxing holiday.
