What a brilliant weekend break. The cottage was everything promised and more — immaculately clean, beautifully equipped, and comfortable. Alan went out of his way to make us, and the dogs, feel welcome and special. The seafront location was absolutely perfect and made the whole stay unforgettable. We’d return in a heartbeat.

It was a privilege to meet both Alan and Anne. They were the perfect hosts and during our extended stay they became more like family who I dearly love. The cottage is very cosy and has everything you would ever need for an enjoyable and comfortable stay. A true home from home that my husband and I were blessed to find and stay in with our 2 dogs.
