It really felt like home from home. We met Gabby who was a really nice lady and it seems like nothing is too much trouble for her. She had left us some milk and lovely cakes. She even offered to come and put the bins out if we didn't have the time, however there was no need as it was no problem to us. To sum it up, it was a warm and lovely welcoming home. Thank you so very much :-)

Very secure garden for the dog, friendly host. Easy access to shops, seafront and dog walking routes. A little gem of a house.

Easy reach for other parts of wales. The cottage was in a quiet location, with a nice garden to sit in, if you are lucky with the weather! will hopefully be returning.
