The cottage is in a very pleasant country position, close to the sea. Nice walks with the dog on the cliff top. Sadly too steep for us to get to the sea, but only a short drive into Westwood Ho. The cottage is comfortable and fairly well equipped, although the bathroom could do with decorating. We would have preferred a dishwasher, rather than a waRead moreshing machine, but thats just our preference. Nice touch with the cream tea on arrival and yes, would return. Hide

Lovely property and well located. Owners were really helpful. There had been an issue with our hot tub ahead of our stay. We were notified before we arrived. They repaired the tub with no disruption to us, and also put in a Lay-Z-Spa tub for us to use whilst ours was out of action. Had a personalised welcome note when we arrived, with fresh scones Read more(inc. cream and jam!). Accommodation was fab! Comfy, cosy, had all the amenities we needed. Couldn't fault it. Would definitely recommend *** Hide

The weather was poor and cold at times, however, When the sun came out it was perfect and the jacuzzi was very therapeutic for my arthritic knees. The bed was so comfortable I did not want to get up in the mornings. The beach is fine if you catch the tide but is hard to get to with your dog if the tide is in.
