+Good location for everything and quiet. It was clean and had everything needed and enjoyed personal touches such as pebble decorating.
−Walking through the chio shoo porch as it was dirty and slugey caused by the chip shop swilling down their machinery. Maybe there should be a path put down for residents to avoid any dirt being bought into the cottage.

“Very peaceful, lovely walks with our dog.”
+we arrived earlier enough to pick up the key from the office, the lady was lovely and they were lovely when we had a problem which they sorted very quickly.
−We have a holiday let attached to our house and we always leave a pint of milk, a small bottle of bubbly for each guest and a bottle of water. I also bake homemade biscuits as I love to bake. We leave tea bags, coffee etc. It's only something small but after a long drive we feel our guests just need a kettle and a biscuits. We did bring all of the above so kettle did go on. The TV drove my husband nuts, didn't bother me at all. We had difficulty getting a signal to begin with which was sorted but it did loose it from time to time. Nice having a DVD player.

“On the whole ok but very noisy every morning”
+Property in a good location for beach and the shops but renters should be made aware of the noise that is generated by the fish and chip shop in front if it
−Property was behind a fish and chip shop who constantly created noise early every morning by dragging bins around and dropping lids down. Had to limbo beneath a line every time we went out and get round the queues of people. Outside patio area needs some TLC. No parking.

+The location of property was perfect , nice cottage with everything supplied and what you would need . Area was lovely too and would definitely come back.
