Great Little Cottage
Perfect getaway for a maximum of 4 adults. Wonderful vistas and privacy. Well equipped kitchen with everything you would need. Great breezes and the cottage never felt too warm. The two small bedrooms were a bit cluttered with personal memorabilia and could use a refresh, but overall a great spot and would book again without hesitation.

Summer Holiday
Cottage- very comfortable and well stocked — we were glad that we could take our dog Beach— partial sand but mostly stones — the water was clean and beautiful — major fishing spot — steps down to cottage from parking area should be made more accessible
