John and Gwen were great hosts. They even left Butter, eggs, milk and 2 Chocolate eggs for the kids on the table for when we arrived. The cottage was clean, really well designed and also well equipped. The garden was amazing with areas to sit and even a fully equipped Barbecue. The position of the cottage meant that both north and south coasts were easily accessible. I would definitely recommend this cottage.
