It is a very well appointed cottage that had everything you needed, and for an old cottage has been been very well modernised. It is fabulous location for exploring the area, which has much to offer

What a beautiful cottage. Tastefully decorated, relaxing & amazing views for sunsets. Plenty space in the garden to relax & listen to the waves. Host is very helpful. Peaceful location, within easy driving distance of other towns & various points of interest. Wish I could have stayed longer. Highly recommend.
