Six in total, grandson, parents and grandparents plus dog. A fabulous week in one of the best cottages we’ve stayed in. Lovely sun trap garden too. All just steps from the beach. We couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely recommend it to others.

This is a really unusual property, made from railway carriages joined together with a large room in the middle and a beautiful living space upstairs. It is situated a few steps from the beach, you can see the sea from the upstairs window. It is clean and well equipped, and has a beautiful private garden. Loads of things to see nearby, or if you like walking there are several routes straight from the front door- no car needed!

Lovely property, particularly enjoyed the well kept garden and the sea view. Although it is a very peaceful and beautiful area, it is a little too quiet for us - for a whole week. Would definitely return for a short break.
