After dinner, curl up on the plush sofa with a good book in hand whilst the warmth of the woodburning stove fills the room with tranquillity before you head to bed.

    Also the key box is sited right up underneath a window sill in the porch. We missed finding it initially and spent an anxious hour in the car park thinking we could not gain access. Not a good start after a 6 hour journey with the added difficulty of offloading. Thankfully Sykes responded promptly and assisted us. We did however have to kneel on the floor to find it and in poor light it was not easy to use. Apart from that we enjoyed our stay and the lovely area.

    The convenient ferry rides to Dartmouth and Greenway are beautiful (in good weather)! The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped, with good views (though the water pressure in the shower was poor). It pays to be pretty fit to stay here, the walk up to the car park and shop is very steep.

    My only complaint is the water pressure was variable and most importantly the pressure in the shower was not good.
