Karen
Location was quiet and relaxing. However, there were a few issues which we feel the property owner can easily rectify. ⢠Weeds in the rear garden, in gravel! (I did remove some whilst I was there, and swept the gravel back into its original place) ⢠Need a chair in both of the bedrooms ⢠Door mat needed by patio door in living room ⢠Frying pan was in poor condition (this was rectified on the 1st evening, thank you) For the cost of the holiday, we feel that the cottage should have been perfect.

Clive
ideal for a family holiday with good food available at the Apple inn and access to the reasonably priced spa. Also a very good location to the coast. Staff were very helpful & pleasant. Would recommend this to anyone.

Ideal for me, my sister and Eric, my shitzu, who loved the outside area. Equipped with all you need and well worth paying extra for a hot tub. Nearby swimming pool and spa added extra luxury and free passes very much appreciated. Not problem was lack of bus route as car problems on our journey meant we were without a car when we got there.
