    “Cottage is ideally situated with a corner shop 50 feet away,the beach is just around the corner (which the dog loved) and the main town was a short stroll away.”

    The welcome pack was indeed most welcome after travelling from Margate. The cottage was clean and tidy. There were brochures inside one of the draws which we did read and some board games of which we indulged. All in all it was a lovely 4 days away in a lovely place
