The only reason I am loathe to praise it so highly is that I fear we'll never be able to get a holiday booked there again, it will be in such demand. An idyll with just everything you need for the perfect break. Thank you for giving us a lovely and restful weekend!

The cottage was very clean with all basic necessities provided on arrival, including tea towels, washing up liquid, tea, coffee, sugar and milk. There was also a bottle of prosecco and bara brith to welcome us!! On one occasion, the boiler stopped working due to low water pressure but a call to the caretaker saw him arrive to fix the issue within 45 seconds...yes, seconds, not minutes or hours!! If eating in, may be worth arranging for a delivery from Morrisons etc for time of arrival as local Spar has limited choices. If bringing your dog, be aware that garden area is not fully enclosed. Recommend Sea Shanty cafe as good place to eat... they allow dogs up till 5pm.

Information pack was great, with contact details of a caretaker if needed, we did not have to make any contact. Fabulous small bay 5 mins walk away, used a restaurant which was included in the welcome info, rarely went anywhere else!
