Stay cut short due to noise through the walls
The property is lovely - well decorated, furnished and very clean. We know & love the area but didn’t realise this cottage was back to back or that noise would travel so much. We were extremely unlucky in that there was a particularly noisy group staying behind us but soon discovered that even normal conversation could be heard - they could obviously hear us too as we heard them discussing it! As our stay was for much needed respite and we got very little peace or sleep - and there was obviously nothing we could do to improve the situation we made the hugely disappointing decision to cut the 4 night stay short and left after just one night. We made the owners aware of the issue & our departure at 1pm and even gave them the opportunity to re-let the cottage. However they didn’t respond to us until 8.30 that night and didn’t/couldn’t really say anything other than they could try talking to the owners of the neighbours. This was obviously no help to us and in all honestly wouldn’t prevent normal level noise being heard. I am extremely surprised that no-one else has raised the soundproofing issue so maybe we are particularly sensitive to noise but I do think it is important to make other potential guests aware as if I had seen a review mentioning it I certainly wouldn’t have chosen this cottage. A real shame!

Great little property, very comfortable and fantastic location
A great little dog friendly property situated with everything you need on the doorstep - beaches, cafes, restaurants, pubs, shops. Very comfortable and clean. The slight issue we had with the toilet and shower was sorted very swiftly with excellent communication with the owner. Will have no hesitation in booking to stay here again - thank you for having us!

Fab cottage, fab location
Beautiful cottage, well decorated and kitchen well-equipped! There was tea/coffee and milk when we arrived to get us through the first morning. The welcome pack was comprehensive. Coastal location, with 4 beaches reachable in under 10 min walk in any direction. Would absolutely recommend.
