Returning to Changing tide made it easier to clean up and dry out! We did have lovely weather too!! The cottage is spacious for 6 adults. There are plenty of bathrooms and spacious bedrooms. My husband and I got used to the tiny en-suite in the largest bedroom! The lounge is comfortable and we enjoyed watching the sea and sunsets from the comfort of this room. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed sitting around the lovely dining table. Thank you to ownerâs dad for replacing tap in kitchen! It was lovely to meet him! The beaches are outstanding in this part of the world, especially Ross Sands! The cottage is within walking distance of 2 good pubs - Craster Arms and The Landing! Both with table service! And plenty of parking for 3 cars! In general, a good location, beautiful house and great service from host, and thank you to cleaners.
