The cottage spread over 3 floors is well designed and offers spacious accommodation. The property is in a great location, just a short stroll to the harbour, shops, pubs and cafes. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and thank the owner and housekeeping for their communications and efforts.

The bathrooms are luxurious. The kitchen has a huge Smeg range, fridge with ice function and a great table and benches. When we arrived the house was immaculately clean which isn't always the case with Sykes dog friendly properties. The ONLY issue is the futons in the living room which look lovely but are singularly uncomfortable
