Charming Getaway in a Quite Seaside Village
I impulsively booked a solo getaway for myself and couldn't have stumbled upon a more perfect place to escape! This place was exactly as described, and had all the charm and peaceful quiet I was looking for. The visitor guidebook that Nicky and Raj provided was so helpful and brought me to explore additional places nearby I didn't know about. Their guidance and communication for the check-in and check-out process was very smooth also. I can't brag about my stay enough - if you stay here, you'll wonder when you'll be lucky enough to visit again!

Charming period cottage
Very welcoming comfy cottage. Exceptional well-equipped kitchen, quality items, everything you could need. Comfy beds and much appreciated welcome package. Only downside is access to parking - could benefit from dropped kerb plus we had a car parked across the road all the time we stayed, making access a little difficult. However, overall a recommended stay.

A great place
We really enjoyed our stay in the property. The wooden mice were a nice touch and the children had fun finding them. The kitchen/diner was a great space to cook and eat in and the lounge very comfortable. A lovely place to spend a week and to anyone else staying, we thoroughly recommend the bakery!
