Lovely property in ideal setting.

This property is in a lovely location very close to the shingle beach and there are sea views from the windows. The property is very comfortable and well equipped.

Great Location

The description of this property was a little misleading, this is not a cottage but part of a large house which is divided into 3 other properties. I think it is also important to note that it does not have a dedicated space to eat outside in fine weather, we visited in October so this was not important. It is an excellent base to explore the beautiful surrounding area and the facilities inside the property are of an extremely high standard. It would have been useful to have instruction booklets for the appliances.
