...Merry & Carl were two very lovely people and very helpful...the only critcism we had was that the TV was a bit too small and the programmes available were limited. Other than that we could not have wished for a more lovely cabin. The views were great and on the whole it was a super place to be. Our only regret is that we had to leave 3 days early due to medical emergency. If you are able to get in touch with Merry & Carl please explain the reason for our sudden departure.

Lovely hosts, great food just minutes away and access to wonderful walks. The cabin has everything needed for a break and revitalise. The terrace views are unforgettable. Three visits this year says it all.

On arrival, Carl (the owner) greeted us and made us feel welcome. Whilst the cabin is within the town It has an isolated feel with a good amount of privacy and provides a quiet, peaceful location. Access to the cabin is via steps and the walks are generally hilly but nothing too strenuous. There are outstanding views across the bay with pleasant short walks through gardens to the town, seafront and harbour amenities.
