Fantastic stay

The cottage was beautiful and was equipped with everything we needed. The heating was easy to control, the shower was great and the whole place was spotless. It was in a location where you could walk to all local amenities and coastal walks but was also tucked away in a quiet street without being overlooked. Easy parking and check-in. No improvements necessary

Peaceful, relaxing and in very comfortable surroundings.

The location is fantastic, 10 mins walk to High Street, and 20 mins to beach. Peaceful and quiet and lovely scenery from cottage. A more high powered hair dryer would have been great.

Excellent holiday home

The house was very comfortable and well appointed. It felt like a real home from home with many delightful features and interesting good quality decor. There was lots of useful information regarding appliances, equipment etc . The location was lovely and in a quiet residential area.it was an easy walk to the town, harbour, gardens and sea front. The local shops and amenities were excellent. It was easy to catch buses from the main drag to have a day off driving. The on site parking was most appreciated. The neighbours whom we met were very friendly and welcoming. There was nothing to dislike at all. One small note is that in common with most rental properties there wasn't a grab failnon slip mat in the shower. As elderly people who are cautious about mobility in bathrooms we took our own suction grab rail and shower mat. As I have mentioned most rental properties and some hotels would be improved by adding these items.

Beautiful well equipped cottage in tranquil surroundings.

Very specious cottage in a peaceful location with own off road parking areas. Would definitely recommend this beautiful cottage. Lovely to be able to walk in about 12 mins to harbour and shops and steam railway and bus stops which meant didn't have to use car all week. Door into bathroom from main bedroom really awkward as so little space, would have thought it would make life easier if door was reversed to open into bedroom or a sliding door replaced it. Other than that perfect , thank you
