Lovely stay at Hillside Cottage

Everything about the cottage was perfect for us. Beautiful location, clean, comfortable. We could see the sunrise over the sea from bed! There is en-suite shower room not pictured in the description and so that was a nice surprise. The parking space allocated for the cottage was possible but a little tight for our large estate car, so we chose to pay for a week’s parking in the public car park, a slightly smaller car would be fine. Portscatho is a lovely base from which to explore the peninsula too.
