Perfect little cottage in a great location

Pros: Everything was perfect. Well equipped with everything we needed, super comfortable bed and fantastic location, just a couple of minutes walk to the beach, pub cafe and walks. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Couldn't fault anything at all. Would highly recommend and will certainly be returning, if we're able to get a reservation as it must be very popular.

Cons: Nothing.

Relax Walk and gave fun at this beautiful cottage

Pros: Lots of attention to detail in this delightful cottage directly on the beach. Both bedrooms have own bathroom. The Ship Inn is easy walking distance with great food. Football on TV too.

Cons: The stairs into the loft room are very quirky and delightful but take care as they are steep. Lots of warnings about them though so there were no mishaps.

Pros: Great location, perfect for a relaxing break away! Well equipped cottage by the sea.

Martyna 9/10

Lovely tranquil place, perfect for a short gateway.

Pros: The place is super cozy, perfect for a beach stroll and beautiful views from top bedroom. Perfect for 2 couples and a dog. Kitchen big, having all you need to prep meals. Contact with owners great and enough space for 2 cars. 2 bathrooms also make it easy with 4 adults. We will come back!

Cons: The kitchen was a bit dirty, but this has been addressed with the owners. The upstairs bedroom not suited for people with mobility issues due to the duck steps staircase but its not something that puts us off, just to be mindful.

Trevor 9/10

Pros: Great cottage, everything you need. Perfect walking area for the dogs with cracking views along the Solway. Lovely food at the nearby Ship hotel, beautiful pub inside. Great base to explore Cumbria from.

Cons: The way the building was originally constructed is like a back to back property so the only outside space is at the front below ground level accessed via the basement kitchen and/or steps from the front and was the only downside to our visit. Even though we never sat out as it was December! we would not choose the property for a summer stay as we like an outside space to sit with a view in the evening to look out to which unfortunately this cottage doesn't have . It's the limitation of how the building was constructed originally and there's nothing the owner's could do to make it better so while it is a great winter staycation spot for us,we wouldn't choose it for a summer stay.

Loved, loved, loved this. Can’t describe enough how much we enjoyed our stay. Have already been looking to see when we

Pros: It was absolutely beautiful. A real home from home and so warm and comfortable. It was located so close to the beach so really easy to get to. Absolutely immaculate inside and out.

Cons: It made me very jealous that it’s not my house 😂
