Lovely cottage and hosts

Cottage was very comfortable and very well equipped. Would work well for both a summer or winter stay. Hosts very helpful. Well positioned in a quiet countryside location and great spot for exploring many of the attractions, towns, and villages along the coast. Would definitely recommend.
