We loved it, dogs loved it , garden could be a bit more secure though, but we just stayed out with them. Lovely views and some gorgeous beaches not to far away in the car. Everything you need is there, but a bread knife, was a bit hard to cut an unsliced loaf 🤣

Despite the lack of full star ratings this was a beautiful place in a stunning location, the girlfriend tear factor as we departed kicked in (always a good sign), cottage beautifully finished and lovely grounds for the dog, would definitely recommend, you do need a car to do anything as location remote (what we wanted), only tiny gripe would be it’s maybe time to replace the couch ! That said brilliant holiday and very nice people
