This is a nice setting of rustic cottages next to the sea . The cottages are on an overgrown acreage and they definitely need work, but inside they are clean and cozy. Very nostalgic with original 60s fixtures and amenities. Even the pool looks like it's from the 50/60s era.
The kitchen includes most things you'd expect. They also supply fresh beans, grinder, and a Boddum (nice touch). Don't forget to bring your own cream and sugar as you won't find any there. I take mine black and the coffee was great.
If you are hoping for a peaceful time, you'd better check to see who else will be there when you are. During our visit, a group of 6 was in the 2 bdr cottage. This included a baby that screamed almost non-stop each afternoon. This party of 6, with screaming infant, monopolized the pool all afternoon for the 2 days we were there. Shame about that. But instead we visited to whole island. It's a nice little drive with a few interesting restaurants and pubs to enjoy. Not to mention the many parks and trails.
Our deck, with a lovely view wasn't habitable during the afternoons, so we opted for the amazing sunset instead. The cottages have a nice western exposure to take advantage of those wonderful evenings. I'm sure it could be a great vacation spot. Although, it fell just a bit short for us.
