Fabulous second stay
My second stay here and it was even better than I remembered. Kitchen well equipped with everything needed, fabulous, powerful shower (useful when walking the coast path in torrential rain with mud!) amazing views, comfy bed and super linen.
Nothing. It was perfect for me.

Spacious apartment with excellent sea views.
The apartment was spacious and had a fabulous sea view. It was bright and fresh and well-presented, with good facilities.
The apartment was quite a long way up the hill, but this wasn't a major problem for us. Parking at the apartment was good during the day, but you were not guaranteed a space if you came back in the evening.

Fabulous apartment perfect for a relaxing break.
What a fabulous apartment! The building was once a swish hotel and has been renovated tastefully with huge rooms. The apartment had everything I needed and more. Loads of space, fabulous views, comfy bed and sofas, plenty of kitchen equipment, but also only a 15 minute walk to the centre if you wish to dine out. It is a steep climb back from.the harbour, but this means you can eat a pudding and walk it off on the way home!
Absolutely nothing in my opinion. I've stayed in many apartments and cottages, during my trek along the SW coast path, and this has been the best yet.
