The property is beautiful, and the owners have literally catered for your every need, the specification of everything in the barn is top end, location I'd perfect and plenty of parking which will be a major bonus in high season, we normally stay in another place however think we have found a new place in Great Meadow

Whilst there are a few steps here and there in the cottage and the garden is raised which we knew our little grandkids negotiated them well. Facilities at the cottage were great and a nice touch welcome pack on the table when we arrived. Ten mins walk to the beach and few mins walk to pubs and shop made this a very nice place to stay.

It is well equipped with plenty of space to relax in. Its modern kitchen made cooking a pleasure. The oven and hob were superb. The properties courtyard is a total suntrap and so the outside furniture was appreciated and well used. The beach,which is within 10 minutes walk, has ideal sand for sandcastle making. We hope to be able to return in the future.
