This is a fabulous property and an absolute winner in terms of views. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Perfect for dog walking, ours loved it! Don't be put off by the trainline, we didn't find it intrusive at all.

What a beautiful and relaxing place. This property really lived up to the promise it made in the pictures. We relaxed, had fun, walked on the beach and saw some amazing castles. A perfect holiday in a special location, in a property that was a home from home. Very spoiled with the sunsets on the every changing landscape.

This cottage is a little piece of heaven. After a stressful year it was just what we needed - the view was out of this world.

A stunning house in a beautiful location. Everything you would need in a home from home. Due to its location, you will need to use a car or the local train to explore further afield.

The property and location to the beach were fantastic and better than described. There is a train line next to the property but the noise blends into the background after the 1st day or so. The beach is lovely but it is muddy in places due to it being an estuary so pack old shoes/boots even in hot weather. If you want to do nothing then it is greatRead more, our dog loved it. Village is very quiet, the pub is really nice but doesn't serve food so you are limited to eating out. Hide

This is a lovely property, well presented with everything that you would need. Beautiful views over the estuary and you couldnt get closer to the beach. Brilliant for the kids to be able to play on the beach all day without having to travel. Friendly and helpful owners too.
