"Couldn't fault the place, it was lovely.excellent location. Loved it being so close to the wee beach cove. 1st holiday that we've had that had everything I like doing on its door stop. Fishing, Kayaking, crabbing, metal detecting, dog walking, . Going on decent walks along the coast. ( All without leaving the village which is a rare thing) Also got a 20 inch pizza delivered to the house which was a bit of a novelty for us. The wife would come back just for the bath and shower. Already looking at rebooking ."
