The Cottage
Bedrooms are dotted throughout the property, with two downstairs and two further up. On the ground floor a spacious kitchen diner is well-equipped for preparing tasty local suppers. The lounge is set atop a mezzanine, with patio doors and picture windows allowing the surrounding views to flood into the space.
Outside, a patio-terrace leads to a set of wooden steps onto the beach below.
Our Favourite Thing
A sunset barbecue on the terrace is a holiday must.
