Its charming wood-clad interiors and cosy atmosphere will help you to relax and unwind, whether you're travelling as a couple or a small family. You can wander across the rocky coastline right from your doorstep for an invigorating walk surrounded by an array of wild flora, fauna and wildlife to soak in the serenity of the area. Upon entering the property you'll find yourself in the interesting kitchen/diner which is filled with warm wooden hues and terracotta tones creating a cosy atmosphere. Here, the fully-equipped kitchen ensures you can cook up a feast for all the family, and serve it up on the four-seater dining table. The wooden staircase leads up to the living room with its unusual, curved ceiling and panoramic views over the water where you can sit and watch the world go by, keeping your eyes peeled for any sightings of seals or otters!
