It is very close to the harbour and all the shops, pubs and cafes. The car park is right next door and the permit was arranged by Ruby with no problems. We had a lovely stay and found it very comfortable, especially the big bed. The outside area is small and could be made much more welcoming with a few tweeks, new furniture, plants and maybe some soft lights. We had an issue with the kitchen tap being very loose but Ruby did all she could to get it sorted. Would definately recommend number 9 to others. Communication with Ruby was very good and found her very helpful, thank you x

Blackout blinds to keep out light and heat would have meant I could sleep during our stay in the hot weather. Some fans for the rooms would also have helped. Windows don't open very much which added to the heat. We paid for a weeks parking as no communication as to whether our free parking has been organised. As I say small things took the edge off an otherwise nice cottage.
