Fantastic!
Absolutely amazing! Could not fault it one bit. The cottage is huge, extremely clean, very well quipped with everything you might possibly need. Everything you need is on the door step - shops, restaurants, pubs, mini golf plus the added bonus of the beach being over the road. The communication with the owners is outstanding. They were so helpful with everything, even sending photos, videos and useful information. Couldn’t be happier with everything and will definitely be returning! Thank you for a great week!!
