Blue Barn is a great place to stay, ideal location for the coast. The rear garden is enclosed by a low stone wall, and is sheltered from the wind so would be a great little sun trap. Spacious kitchen, and a large living room/dining room with log burner if you're a fan of serious warmth!! Property is in an "L" shape with kitchen /living room formingRead more one arm and the other being the hallway to the bathroom and three bedrooms. Hide

This is a beautiful house. Really well equipped, comfortable, clean, warm. Beautiful location and not far from A1 for exploring the area. We loved it. Accessible shower but be mindful of a few internal steps if booking for a person with mobility problems.

Absolutely wonderful week away. Everything you could possibly ask for. Comfortable, spacious, peaceful. Plenty of places to visit and dog friendly beaches Only issue was the enclosed garden.

Lovely, idyllic location in a small hamlet. The cottage is large enough for 6 people but I wouldnt say 6 adults. Dog friendly too which is a plus for holiday stays.

Lots of kitchen equipment including washRead moreer/dryer and dishwasher and a selection of DVDs to watch in the lounge. The sofa was too low for us but then again it might be ideal for others. Hide
