Cosy cottage with great views
We really enjoyed our stay here. Cottage is well equipped and clean and the heating easily controlled. Great views out to sea and good location for access to walks, cafe, lobster shop, hotel and craft shop. Garden was good for our dog and having dedicated parking spot was a bonus.

Lovely views and a peaceful setting
This is a nice cottage with a beautiful view. The owner left detailed instructions about parking and access to the cottage. The big issue we had, coming from Canada is being able to use the stove snd oven. We did everything we could, even looked at the manuals left, but we could but get the stove to work at all and with the oven, the only setting that would provide heat was the broiler which is not how we wanted to cook. As a result food that we purchased to cook in the cottage was not able to be used. There was a lack of basic items for us such as salt, dishwasher soap, laundry soap and even a dishcloth! We had to wash all dishes by hand because there was no soap for the dishwasher. There were wet towels left in the washer that were left in the washer and glasses and cups in the cupboard were not cleaned properly. Cutlery drawer was not clean but bedding was clean. We loved the village and it’s location so we would come back to Johnshaven!
