Reviews

Amazing cottage so glad we chose it , location was excellent for us , very private , and was dog friendly , spotlessly clean and modern , pictures do no do this place justice , beach and restaurant 5 min walk away , I would definitely recommend and stay here again

Mr F,

A very comfortable stay. Don't let the location put you off, the nearby park is 5 star and has very good facilties. We took our labrador and the fully enclosed garden was perfect, with loads of space for him to run. I would definitely use this cottage again if I was staying in the area.

Mr W,

A beautiful property set in beautiful surroundings, would definitely recommend this to anybody looking for a quiet break with incredible views. 5 star.

Mr M,

Well appointed and clean property in a lovely location with a 10 minute walk to miles of golden sandy beach. After hours spent on the beach, it was great to return to a relaxing time in the hot tub. Friendly property owner with a wealth of local knowledge that you are unlikely to find on any website.

Mr W,

A much needed break, it’s years since I holidayed in the UK, recharged the batteries in a proper chilled out environment.

Mr Gary E,

Excellent quality accommodation with everything we needed. Loved the hot tub and large garden. Excellent location.

Mrs Jenny B,

Unless mistaken we couldn't find a tumble dryer on site. More instructions were needed for using hot tub as was a bit of game to figure out the controls (had to find a you tube video how to unlock the controls) The corkscrew was broken and unusable (broken arms) Overall the place was very good, and the directions given by OC were really helpful. Thank you

Mr Phil D,

beautiful property, great location. feels like you are in the countryside but just a short walk and you are at the beach - had a lovely time and will return in the future.

Mrs Debbie L,
