We had a short stay here in September while we eloped, Rob & Eileen made our stay absolutely perfect and went above and beyond all expectations, by far the best self-catering experience we have ever had.We saw otters from the front window swimming in the bay, the cottage was extremely clean and well equipped and easy to find.We hope to stay again.Would highly recommend!

A true home from home. Stunning location and peaceful. The fact that we could book just a few nights was great. Too many self catering insist on a weeks booking.Pet friendly also. Just as well as we go nowhere without our wee dog.We'll definitely be back.
