The cottage has everything we needed for our stay. It was cosy and spotless with plenty of space. The double bedroom is accessed via the twin room making this I think more of a couple or family accommodation. The view of the harbour was so beautiful and same view from every room...just a perfect place to stay.

Cute cottage right on the harbour with wonderful views. Very close to cafes and restaurants but still quiet and tucked away. It was lovely to sit out in the sun overlooking the harbour with a coffee. Well equipped kitchen with everything we needed. Comfy bed but it's just a double. Highly recommend!

Brilliant location and very nice property. Car park ticket provided as no parking near the property. Need to hover around the quay area for unloading when you arrive which can be very busy.
