"We had a lovely week away here with family. It’s a beautiful, quiet spot, with the coast a short walk in all directions. Fal Cottages were very helpful when I had some questions before arrival. After departure we gave some feedback by email of some necessary maintenance issues, and a suggested improvement (a mirror in the family bathroom would be very useful), so hopefully these will be acted upon quickly."

There is a free car park across the road and a bus stop on the corner so this makes things very accessible."
