The cottage is in a prime spot on the harbour side, the best views being from the first floor bedroom. We stayed there in September and the cottage was nice and warm with central heating coming on when needed. It's also dog friendly on the ground floor only which wasn't a problem as long as you remembered to shut the door to the stairs. The owners Read moreare very friendly and are on hand locally if and when needed, we would book again. Hide
