"Lovely cute cottage, fab location, amazing views of the sea from the kitchen, 1st-floor bedroom and especially the attic room. (Missing those views now !) Be prepared for a very steep hill up to the car park, which like everything else is virtually right on the doorstep. Good value for the location"
