We arrived in the afternoon and were warmly welcomed by Mary with fresh scones, homemade jam and offers of help with anything we needed, such as locales for groceries and the best pubs to visit. The cottage was perfect for the four of us, and we had peaceful nights, after dinners in the well-equipped kitchen. Being a very short walk to the beach, we even enjoyed a beach fire one night. A truly magical visit, surrounded by the beautiful gardens, the birds and the nearness to the water. But most especially we enjoyed the kindness of our hosts!
