We had a lovely week staying in the Barnsdale - the cottage is small but perfectly equipped for a small family. It had everything we needed and was a (very) short walk from the port and a couple of local pubs. Would definitely stay again!

The cottage was located just a short walk from the harbour in a lovely location. It was clean and well equipped although it would benefit from a stair gate and a fence at the top of the stairs which lead up to the garden to make it more toddler friendly. It was basic in decor but perfectly acceptable The only negatives were the rug could do with a clean and the outside table could do with replacing. The caretaker was welcoming and gave us useful local information.

This cottage needs some serious updating, cooker so outdated, washing machine programs don’t work ( have to move it on manually) shower is not thermostatic so scalding young children. Outside garden is very tired looking,
