Mrs King
The cottage was lovely and very well equipped with everything you could need. The local pub, although very rustic seved excellent food. The only downside was the narrow, winding roads leading in and out of the village- not for the faint hearted driver or those with a big or expensive car !

Stunning location, feel cut off from the world! Wonderful walk to sea, super meals at local pubs and lunch at The Old Bakery. Cosy cottage, great well equipped base with courtyard garden just over lane. Super holiday for two with dog!

Mr Provost
A very well appointed cottage with a comfortable bed, cosy and compact. Of note this is a very beautiful but isolated location. If this is what you’re looking for, it is ideal, but prepare for many, many miles of single track lanes. It has birdlife, footpaths and history on your doorstep. Recommended for nature lovers.
