Comfort Plus

The overall cottage was beautiful especially the bedroom, roomy, airy, plenty of space. The kitchen facilities were minimal but adequate if you are not cooking lots of meals. It was within walking distance of shops and the beach, though not one of the popular beaches. It did have a lovely kids playground and grassy park area., though the cottage is more for 2 not a family. The air-conditioning and fans were efficient and kept the place cool, however we did notice on 2 days that someone entered our property and turned off the air conditioner, which was disconcerting and annoying, as we were only out for a few hours at a time. If it was that important there should of been a notice asking for aircon to be turned off. Having the laundry was great, and the cottage did have a supply of beach towels, books, games, a shopping trolly, and 2 outdoor camping chairs which we thought was a great touch. Overall we would recommend this cottage and definitely come back.

Central location

Nice place, very clean, met all our needs. Being so central we found it noisy by our standards (we live on a farm).
