Lovely cottage ideal for two adults (plus our little dog) with good local amenities and shops, westward ho beach is fabulous and we had some glorious walks, plenty to see and do in the surrounding area, but the local area is great too.The only slight comment we would make is the outside space which is “tired” and very uneven underfoot so if you are elderly and not as mobile as you might be (as we are!) then you need to take extra care to avoid a trip which may prove painful??Otherwise we had a wonderful relaxing holiday, exactly what we needed.

A fabulous well equipped home from home. So comfortable and clean with everything you need. The owners have thought of everything. Lovely welcome pack which was very much appreciated after a long drive. Fantastic location. Super beaches and very dog friendly. Highly recommended. Loved it and a huge thumbs up for Point Break.
