A really nice house within easy reach of miles of stunning beaches. Parking is on street but it's a quiet road and there was no difficulty finding a space in the two weeks we were there.

Both positive and negative aspects to this cottage. It is in a great location only a minute walk to the harbour and the fish restaurants. Its nicely decorated and clean too. Main bedroom excellent/good size. TV and wi-fi good. Lounge/Diner good size. Street parking is a bit tricky - sometimes no available spaces on the same street as the property. However, the bathroom is so small it is possible only to sit on the toilet sideways. The bath is tiny and the shower, which is in the bath, is barely shoulder-width. There is a washing machine in the kitchen, but it does not have a dryer, so if you want to wash clothes they will probably have to stay wet until you get home.
