High-quality furnishings and interior design at Beach Cottage make this a truly wonderful retreat.

It has an open-plan living area on the ground floor. The fully-equipped kitchen has an electric oven, hob, microwave, fridge and a small counter top freezer (which is in a cupboard under the stairs), dishwasher and washer/dryer. There is a sitting and dining area, with a TV, DVD player, Sonos Music System, local information folders and reference books for wild flowers and birds. The wood-burning stove is perfect to relax in front of on cold nights, listening to the waves crash onto the beach outside. There’s also underfloor heating downstairs (with radiators upstairs) so you’ll be nice and toasty during your time here. This space leads onto the beach room, with decking beyond and an outside shower.

There is a separate WC on the ground floor with a small hallway and stable door (good for toddlers/children and dogs). The bunk bed room (2 bunk beds suitable for children) is also downstairs.

Upstairs is the master bedroom (6′ bed or two 3′ single beds) with French doors that open onto a decked veranda, where you can take in breath-taking views of the sand and sea. It has an en-suite bathroom with a large walk in shower and special ‘Tub Bath’.

Outside, the sheltered summer house (tucked below the cottage) is a favourite with guests. They love being able to make the most of the afternoon and evening sunshine – it’s perfect for barbecues.

Please note the ceiling levels in parts of the shower room/bathroom are not consistently the same height.

The cottage has PV panels and electric boiler.
