Very friendly and helpful host.The cottage exceeded our expectations and was spotlessly clean and everything you could think of was supplied(even down to toothpaste and toothbrushes).The parking was a bit tight for our estate car but ample space outside the cottage.

When we arrived at the cottage on Sunday we were met by Naomi, she made us feel very welcome and showed us into the lovely cosy lounge. Naomi had laid a fire in case it was cold in the evenings and there was a very generous welcome tray. The cottage was very clean throughout and the kitchen was well equipped and stocked with every thing we needed and more for our stay.It was so peaceful and quiet day and night, slept so well and felt totally relaxed all week.We had a mix of weather but we still had a great stay and did all we had planed out before our visit. We hope to visit again one day soon.Many thanks Naomi We can highly recommend this property for its cleanliness ,peace and quiet and caring host.John & Sue 31st May - 7th June 2026

Thank you so much John and Sue for leaving such a super and very helpful review. I'm so pleased you had a happy week and liked Haisbro' and this area, and also the 'peace and quiet and sleeping well!' It makes us owners very happy to hear that!! The Cottage is a nice spot for getting away from it all, but also lots to do on the doorstep. It was lovely to meet you both and a pleasure to have you to stay at my home. You're welcome back any time. Exceptional, considerate 5* Guests.

Quaint and cosy cottage walking distance to the sea

If you’re looking for something a bit out of the ordinary this is for you. The authentic old fisherman’s cottage is a cosy retreat, an open fire, comfy warm beds and a welcoming owner who provides lots of local goodies.
