Cottage was cosy, warm and everything we needed bar dishwasher.On-street parking very limited or nil, and therefore you have to be prepared to walk a couple of streets away to park.Whilst the cottage itself was well kept, and being mid-terrraced, neither of the adjacent properties are well kept, which is a shame.Backs onto the railway which is not an issue.Walking to the coast or town is easy, and the bars and restaurants look good. Coastal walk is good and we walked to Hern bay and got the train back.

Everything about this cottage was fantastic. The kids, the dog and us all enjoyed our time. The location is great and the place is lovely. the road is very quiet and even with the train track we didn't notice it was there. The welcome tray of snacks and drinks was just fantastic and far better than you get in a hotel. The only two niggles I have is that the bathroom door doesn't shut, and if you are in the bedroom it's not the best experience... and the bathroom handle is very loud and woke us up a couple of times when it was being used. Otherwise, this place is wonderful!
