Its proximity to the beach, coastal paths, and local eateries is highly appreciated by guests. The property is dog-friendly, though some were surprised by the no-dogs-upstairs policy. While the lack of a welcome package was noted, the overall experience remains positive, with many guests planning to return.
Guests consistently describe the cottage as spotlessly clean, with no negative comments on cleanliness, indicating a very high standard.
The location is frequently highlighted as excellent, being close to the beach, coastal paths, and local amenities. Some guests mentioned traffic noise, but it did not significantly detract from the overall positive feedback.
Reviewers find the cottage warm, cosy, and comfortable, with special mentions of comfortable beds and a cosy atmosphere, suggesting a high level of comfort.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the modern kitchen and bathroom. However, a minor issue with the TV not being internet-linked and comments about parking and garden access suggest room for improvement.
While some guests missed a welcome package, this is not a standard amenity and varies by property. As such, it is not guaranteed and should not be expected. There are no other comments addressing thoughtfulness directly, so a score cannot be provided.
