"Peaceful and private"

7.0

The cottage is well equipped, with a good sized lounge, bathroom, bedroom and kitchen in two parts. The location is very peaceful and private, because it is set back from the road. There is a selection of good pubs, cafes and restaurants, free on-street parking, and easy access to local 7-11 shops, museums, railway station, and ferry. We enjoyed our stay, and would book again.

The door to the street kept us guessing, and I had to telephone the proprietor. Clearer instructions would help! It was quite cold when we arrived, but I couldn't work out the central heating control. Fortunately a fan heater kept our feet warm. The doors, windows and bathroom would benefit from some maintenance. The kitchen fan runs constantly; I hoped it would turn off at night, but it didn't. The bathroom fan didn't work. The wifi dropped in and out.

"Nice, quiet cozy break away."

9.0

Loved the quiet, property was tucked away from noise & traffic sounds. The small roof garden was great for me & my dogs, didn't have to keep going out and very warm in the sun, despite the wind. Nice cozy little place for one or two people who just want a quiet getaway. As long as you don't mind just sea view walks, as it's a quiet dock town. Need to drive out if you want anything else but wasn't a problem for me. Probably more going on in season but for me it was the peace & quiet I craved with my dogs.

Shower room good but the floor is then wet for sometime after, making it difficult to use the sink/ toilet without getting wet feet. Could do with a towel mat to put down. I was also a little bothered that I couldn't sweep the floor before I left, so could do with a broom in the property.

"Not a lighthouse. Thick with smoke. Couldnt stay."

2.0

This listing led us to believe we were staying in a lighthouse and that is the ONLY reason we booked it. We learnt on the journey that this was not the case but were minded to make the best of it, since reviews were good and the interior looked sweet. On arrival the whole place was thick with smoke smell. We spent 10 minutes but couldn’t bear it and had to load up and come home again. Lost holiday. Wasted tank of petrol. Still waiting to find out about a refund. Poor system for cancellation. FYI The initial door to the courtyard is v sticky (poss not so in summer) so just force it hard to open and ignore what looks like a key code thing on the door. The key code is further within the courtyard.
