Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacqueline M. 3 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great wee property Lovely weekend with our grandson in this gorgeous wee cottage! Decided to use ground floor for sleeping as husband pretty tall and I didnt fancy the ladder in the middle of the night! But we managed pretty well. Grandson absolutely loved the recessed bed - so well done. Cooking facilities fairly basic but we knew on booking so no surprise as we planned to eat out. The location is wonderful and literally a stones throw from the amazingly clean beach. Tennis courts a short walk away along with a great pub for food and a cracking breakfast at The Pavilion. Best of all we picked a sunny weekend! ##### Jacqueline M.
