We had a lovely long weekend at the Little Cottage. The cottage was clean and tidy, and had everything we needed. It was a quick walk to the most amazing beach. Over and above this, Mandy &Rob were excellent hosts. Quick and easy communication, and they were happy to accommodate some extra requests we had. Hopefully we'll be able to come back again.

It was peaceful and lovely gardens. Bach was clean and had all needed. The only drawback was the beach access which limited our time there with a small child and older folk but we were warned, so can't grumble.

No host welcomed us! Just left us details about keys and amenities we needed to bring. The place was okay, a little way out of town, l actually thought bringing tea towels, and bedding, toilet paper wasn't the best, and the water in the shower minimal. We kept the place tidy however cobwebs in the corner of the house could have been tidied.
