Lovely quiet cottage with plenty of room for the family. Beautiful views and great garden for children and dogs to play. The kitchen had all you need for cooking and a breakfast bar which doubled up for children's activities. The dining table was great for family meals and board games in the evening. Just a short walk to two lovely quiet beaches along quiet country lanes. The balcony was a quiet spot to relax. Best we have had, and we've been holidaying with cottages.com for many years.
