  • Judith

    It was comfortable and warm. Sea glimpses from the balcony meant I could check the waves before going for a swim. Supermarket a few steps away. We would recommend this cottage.

  • Andrew

    We enjoyed our stay the 11a had everything we would want. Two things to note double bed is very soft, car parking in the street is challenging especially on a weekend. But the sea front car park at the end of the street is free 6pm to 8am and reasonably priced at other times

  • Howard

    For a short stay this was managable Location was excellent close to beach and superstore
