Overall we had a pleasant stay.The beds were very comfortable, with clean linen. The kitchen was well stocked & clean.It would be more comforting perhaps to have safety bar in the shower (I happened to be recuperating from a hip surgery but managed ok).The area we found most lacking was the loungeroom; it had the odour of old musty furniture & dogs (our dog however was very much at home ).

A wonderful harbourside cottage

Immaculately clean, thoughtfully furnished and with many touches to make both people and pets feel at home. This cottage is much larger than it appears and has everything you need for a holiday - would thoroughly recommend it. And the hosts are very friendly and welcoming.
