Perfect little cottage
The Sandpiper Cottage was the perfect space for our get away. Lovely courtyard to relax in for a tipple or two. Only 2 blocks from the beach and a short stroll to the cafes and shops. Would highly recommend staying here.

Lovely Cottage
Cottage is perfect for a couple. It is comfortably fitted out. We had a few complications in when we would arrive (our own doing) and the owner was very helpful and responsive in communications. Has a wood heater for winter, along with other heaters if you don't want the fire, which makes it nice and cosy. The kitchen is well equipped. There is no view to speak of but there is a nice courtyard to sit in with a BBQ for the warmer weather which would be nice and quiet. It is a very short drive to supermarket and places to eat or else a comfortable 15 minute walk. Overall we were very happy with our stay.
