Loved the cottage, everything was there we needed. Location was great . Short walk to the town. The only issue was the parking, as it was peak season we had issues when we came back to the cottage if we went out.

Great location. Short walk into town and good walks on the door step to take the dogs out. House was well equipped. Would come back again.
