We chose the cottage for its proximity to Freshwater West and the coastal path for walking. It was perfectly situated - nestled at the end of a road - and was very quiet and peaceful. We also looked for a cottage which would have history and heritage. We loved the tiled floors and the quirky rooms. The cottage is well equipped and, again, suited our needs. The cottage style kitchen was big and spacious. The rooms are comfortable and the bathrooms are of a good standard.We had an excellent week.

This house is spacious and near lovely beaches. It’s a great area with walking, swimming, surfing and snorkelling opportunities. The house is a home that is let out part-time. It had a good range of kitchen equipment. Unfortunately, it wasn’t clean - dusty, cobwebby and some mould. (We were offered a revisit from the cleaner, but didn’t want the disruption and it would have taken many hours to make it acceptable for rental.)
