We had a fabulous week staying at Coles Retreat. The property was spotless and extremely cosy. There is one thing we would change: the settee in the living room. It was uncomfortable and a squash for four! The beds were very comfortable and the shower was lovely and hot.

Great little holiday cottage, it was nice and warm and the bed was very comfy. The only thing I would change would be to swap the sofas over as the one in the sitting room is so low that once you sit down you cant get back up were as the ones in the conservatory are much higher . ( im getting old lol)The dogs loved the closeness to the sea and we had great walks, the pubs in Anderby creak don't do food at this time of year but I highly recommend the axe and cleaver at Alford.
