The cottage is spacious with a beautiful view from the living room window. It's well equipped with enough crockery, cutlery, pans etc to cook for the family and there are high spec TVs in each room. There were plenty of blankets, pillows and towels and the beds were all comfortable. There was plenty of parking available. Communication from the owner was great.

− The cottage is in need of renovation. The bathrooms specifically, including the floors as the downstairs bathroom's floor was very unsteady due to rot. The main upstairs shower had only one setting-scalding. The en suite shower room has no ventilation and no separate light switch, meaning the bedroom light has to stay on if the bathroom is in use. It's in need of a deep clean throughout. Only one wine glass in the otherwise well equipped kitchen. Not at all accessible for physical disabilities. Walk to beach is a good 10-15 minutes due to very steep hill. If you take the cheeky shortcut, the lady WILL shout at you (fair enough really!).

Stunning seaside view, calm and peaceful.

− It could do some upgrading like the toilets. The 2 showers were quite hot despite low temperature except for the unsuited bathroom.

Didn’t stay. Got out of there as fast as possible

The view

− Everything other than the view. It had not been cleaned in months. Absolutely disgusting. 2 inches of green mould in the dishwasher to start. Microwave was thick in dirt. Mould in all the bathrooms around all the shower cubicles. Decking was unsafe. Loose slats wide gaps. List goes on

Needs alot of tlc , if your disabled or have health conditions the walk to the beach is not for you

The location was excellent, however it states a 5 minute walk to the beach and no way was it a 5 minute walk . I had to drive to the beach and definitely would not have made the walk up the steep hills in the heat wave at all .

− The property wasn't very clean , no umbrella provided for the garden furniture as advertised, it needs alot of tlc including the outside decking as there were quite a few rotten and loose boards . If there was a zip line to the beach it may have been 5 minutes .

We found a nail on one of the beds, which is a serious safety concern. The bed sheets were dirty and had a strong unpleasant smell. In addition, the floors throughout the property are very dirty and slippery, creating a significant health and safety risk. The bathroom is in a very poor condition, with mould, damp, broken flooring, and unhygienic curtains. The kitchen is also extremely dirty, with hair on the floors and inside the microwave. There are also serious concerns regarding the exterior of the property. The entrance area appears unsafe, with a large visible crack in the wall, as shown in the attached photograph. The decking outside is broken and has been covered with slabs, creating a potential trip hazard and raising further safety concerns. In addition, there is currently no running water from the taps, making it impossible to wash, clean, or use the facilities properly. This is completely unacceptable and has caused significant inconvenience during our stay. Overall, the cleanliness, maintenance, and condition of the property are far below an acceptable standard, and we are very disappointed with both the accommodation and the lack of response to our concerns.

It was such a shame as we have becoming here for a few years now, but we will look for somewhere else to stay now.

The view looking out from balcony is lovely. Close walking distance to the beach.

− Unfortunately the property was dirty throughout and most of the bedding smelt terrible. The shower over the bath was scalding hot and couldn’t be turned down, the decking on the balcony was kept in place with breeze blocks. Everything just needed a good clean and repairing, we couldn’t even lock the property when we went out as the key wouldn’t turn in the lock. There was hair around the toilet and the flooring was coming apart in the bathroom
