It was clean on the whole though we did find quite a bit of dog hair. We did think however that it was lacking in storage space as the owners seem to keep a lot of their belongings there leaving little room for guests' belongings etc. The kitchen cupboards were filled with things like wine glasses leaving no space for food, so not ideal for self catering. Overall it felt very much like staying in someone else's house like an Air BnB rather than a traditional holiday let. The communal garden was great and the pool was a nice extra, though sadly it was closed for most of the time. The shared washing machine and dryer didn't seem to work very well, which was quite disappointing given they were coin operated.

The sea and beach on your doorstop and after an 8 hour journey and arriving at the cottage it was breathtaking, we had a lovely relaxing stay, the dog loved it as did we! Peaceful and if you love stunning views and walks and want to get away from the hustle and bustle then would highly recommend going here. Couldnât get over the amount of toilets around and all areas that we visited were really clean, didnât want to leave and will definitely be going back.

Mould in the shower area, skirting board coming away from kitchen units. Pots and pans had grease on them. Dishwasher didn't work. Cobwebs all over the bedrooms. Just felt like its listing and pictures didn't really reflect the current state it is in. Looked like it had ,had a really hard season or two with very little reinvestment. Overall it felt tired and grubby.
