Great location, quiet but within a short walk to amenities in the village, including shop, cafes, takeaway and lovely beach. Footpath immediately next to cottage leads to rocky headland and coastal walks. The cottage was a great layout with plenty of space for six people. A little let down by the cleanliness and signs of neglect that could do with nipping in the bud.
