Brilliant cottage. Traditional fisherman’s cottage, really quirky layout with low ceilings, windy stairs and hidden cupboards. Lots of personal touches which were really nice. Great WiFi which we all loved and excellent water pressure which is often lacking at holiday cottages. Lovely welcome packages for humans and dogs and we couldn’t recommend this enough. Perfect central location **

Very welcoming traditional cottage. The owners clearly want guests to enjoy their stay, and we certainly did. Great location near the steps to the promenade and beach and only a few minutes walk from the town centre. Would definitely go back.
