Beautiful cottage location

The location of the cottage is outstanding, right on the beach - fantastic. Very cosy with everything you need. Excellent that we could take our dogs and they thoroughly enjoyed the beach. We will definitely be booking again The only thing I would say is don’t follow the properties postcode as it doesn’t take you to the beach slip road.

The location is amazing right on the beach. Safe to park your 4x4 on the beach in front of cottage but if you want to go travelling during your stay keep an eye on the tides as when the tides in you can’t move your car!Lovely cottage, watch your head on the low beams! Picturesque with wood burning stoveThe only downside was the mattress on the main bed, so uncomfortable but easily rectified (if replaced!)A great place to get away from it all and relax, we’ll definitely be returning xx

5*

We had an incredible few days staying in this magical cottage on the beach. The location is perfect for beach lovers & is easy to access the coast path for stunning walks. The cottage itself was full of interesting historic features, clean, well presented, comfortable and well equipped. We have rebooked for next year! Thank you

Beach break

What a fantastic location. Waking up every morning to a stunning view and opening the door straight onto the beach. Wonderful for the grandkids. The sea was so clear and the sand is golden.If I was being critical I would have liked the usd of a microwave for the grandkids and the mattress in the king size is in need of changing. I could feel the springs !!Overall though I thought it was a great holiday and would recommend it . To be fair it’s fully booked all year !!

Beautiful bolthole on the beach

Historic cottage on the beach. Vehicular access is limited but can be done carefully or at right tide time. Otherwise park on slipway which is circa 7-10 minutes on foot. Stunning location. Only downside for us was demolition work that was taking place on Friday at nearby cottage which was very noisy & spoiled ambience. If this has finished, then don’t let it deter you. Bring own shower gel (there wasn’t any when we stayed). However, cottage was lovely & clean. Beautiful views from bedrooms & front lounge / kitchen / front door. Lovely coastal path walk to Ty Coch nearby. Home comforts - cosy and comfortable with real fire & books. Memorable stay in magical place!
