The house was welcoming and uncluttered, with a pretty view of the ocean and surrounding islands. The bed in the master bedroom was comfortable, sheets very soft, bathroom spacious and kitchen nicely designed and useable. Anne, the owner, was responsive, pleasant and helpful when we had questions.
As others have mentioned, the house is set behind and to the side of a larger rental house, so it has the feel of water view, with access, rather than waterfront. We wouldn't have felt comfortable hanging out on the grassy area above the cobbles, which was clearly someone else's yard. If it's important to you to experience the shoreline in that way, I would recommend the larger cottage, from the same owners. If you're happy with a good view of the water and the freedom to visit a rocky shore to take pictures, Apple Cottage is perfect.
