“Great cottage in the best location.”Reviewed: Sep 2019

"Great cottage in the best location. Right by the beach & next door to the township whilst still being nice & quiet. Park up & walk around. We really enjoyed it & thought the cottage was super cute. Michelle was a great host, checking in with us to see that everything was ok & giving us handy tips."
