Summary: Very nice cottage in a quiet village with fabulous beaches. Cottage had everything necessary for our weeks stay. Owners were keen to minimise use of the immersion heater for the hot water which meant hot water wasn't always readily available through the tap. Would benefit from an up to date internet capable TV for netflix, BBC iplayer accessibility.
