There is limited parking outside the cottage but plenty of free street parking nearby. As it was, we were lucky and only once could not park near the cottage. There is a dehumidifier in the kitchen.

"This accomodation is amazing, however if you are taking a pet dog you need to know that the beach/local paths do not allow dogs between end of March to October. Not clear in hotels.com info. We walked from the local path down towards the beach saw the sign saying no dogs on the beach so walked by the quay side- unbeknown to us due to poor signage was also no dogs, only to be aggressive confronted by a nasty local man. Put a bit of a downer on being in such a nice property so close to beach."

Grounds were clean, the pool looked inviting, would have definitely used in warmer days. Although the room was very clean the shower was all open plan with the bedroom, which was strange. The sink could have been deeper made shaving difficult. All very modern but not practical. But none of that spoiled our long weekend. Would go again especially as its do close to the Eden Project."
