Great spot but not for us.

5.0

Convenient location for the area & dog friendly which is always a bonus.

Paid for a room which we did not get due to poor organisation of the host. Bed was uncomfortable. Breakfast was an eclectic mix with no idea what exactly was available. Overpriced

Lorna done a lovely breakfast for us This b @ b may not be to everyone's taste as not en suite and just a homely little cottage beside a harbour but Lorna is a lovely lady who welcomes you into what is her family home Maybe not suitable for some but we loved the old fashioned decor Reminded us of grannies house maybe that will give you an idea of this quaint bed and breakfast with kind hostess

We like en suite accomodation that's all
