lovely traditional cottage with a fantastic modern update, with cosy nooks as well as bright spacious places to hang out. a babbling brook runs next to the house, and there are lovely gardens and outdoor areas. having the secluded beach a minutes walk away was very special, and the sauna to recover after a cold irish sea swim was magic. pretty far away from the nearest towns, and a good 20 min drive to a decent pub or restaurant, so best for those happy to stay in and cook for themselves. kitchen is a little under stocked in terms of staples (salt, pepper, oil) and equipment (no sharp knives, few pans) but hopefully the host will fix that.
