An excellent cottage, everything you could need is here.
An excellent cottage, everything you could need is here. The owners have made a very comfortable base with everything you could need supplied. The cottage is very well decorated and the outdoor space is excellent, the photos do not do justice to how lovely this accommodation is. We spent a lovely week here and have already booked for next year. Farm shop next door is also worth a mention, lovely produce with a good variety of sweet and savory treats.

This is a fantastic holiday cottage.
This is a fantastic holiday cottage. Beautifully decorated and appointed. The large secure garden was perfect for our dog and it’s in a great location, a short drive to wonderful beaches and towns. I would recommend this cottage and the one next door (which I also stayed there in 2022). Communication with the host was top notch and she returned an item by post that I accidentally left behind.
