Warm and comfortable

Great bolt-hole - stylishly fitted and well equipped. Quick access to walking routes (both bays) and good views out to sea. Would stay again!

Brilliant location & beautiful property

We really enjoyed our stay at the Watchhouse. The location is brilliant, as both the North & South bays are in walking distance. The property is furnished to a high standard and it was great having 3 bathrooms for our family of 5! Also unusual to get an outdoor garden space so close to the coast. The property wouldn’t be ideal for people with mobility issues as there are a number of steps to access the house & rooms, which we did have some challenges with for our 1 year old-but the host provided a baby gate which was very much appreciated. We would definitely stay again. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We really enjoyed our stay. The views from the upstairs were amazing, especially with the large French doors. The kitchen and dining area were excellent. We loved having 3 separate bathrooms. WiFi and TV were excellent. It was also nice to have a washing machine and storage space in the utility room. The garden was lovely, especially for the children. Hard to park (we could not find residents' parking spaces, so hard to use a car park half a mile away) and very hard to unload the car upon arrival - would be very hard with small children. The location worked well for us with the views but would not work for anyone with infants, as the climb up the steps would be impossible with a buggy or pram. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely house cosy stay

We visited 5th September for a long weekend. The house is very nice with amazing sea views. Well equipped with all the usual things you would expect in a rental house. Had a problem with parking as the scratch cards were not in the property as suggested in the guide and it was too late to do anything about it the night we checked in, however after a couple of calls in the morning we were sorted. I ha read a previous review regarding stairs and parking and it should be noted that the property is located at the top of a hill. Expect stairs and challenging hills to unload the car and enter leave the property. If you were elderly with mobility issues this is not for you. Parking spaces are around the corner and at a premium so we were home early every day to secure one otherwise you would be searching for a space and would again involve plenty of exercise
