Tuckaway Cottage
Description
Tuckaway Cottage has a Narnia feel to it as you step through a simple door from King Street into an inner covered entrance followed by a long entrance hall which leads to the kitchen at the back. A cosy sitting room is off to the right as well as the shower room – ideally placed for salty sailing gear! Upstairs sit the double bedroom and two quaint cabin style single rooms, as well as a toilet. Original maritime memorabilia, nautical books, artwork and navigation equipment make this a fascinating seaside holiday cottage.
There’s unrestricted parking close to the cottage and plenty of space to securely store buggies, beach gear, bikes etc. in the covered entrance at the front of the cottage.
Ground floor The front door opens into a long hall where the walls are filled with an interesting assortment of nautical memorabilia – ships steering wheels, oars, books, artwork, boats etc. A desk sits at the end for those needing to do a spot of work and the sitting room is off to the right with the kitchen at the far end. The shower room sits on the ground floor and stairs rise to the first-floor landing. A sisal carpet runs through the majority of the house with rugs, there’s linoleum in the kitchen and slate tiles in the entrance and shower room.
Sitting Room Comfortably furnished with sofa and selection of chairs with a sturdy blanket box, dresser heaving with CDs and games, drop leaf table which you can use for meals and plenty of occasional tables stacked with coffee table books and lamps. A wood burner sits in the attractive fireplace and doors open to the hall.
Kitchen/Breakfast Room This traditional style kitchen sits quietly at the back of the cottage and is equipped with a free standing electric oven with four rings and extractor; slimline dishwasher, under counter fridge with ice compartment, washing machine and free standing microwave. You can enjoy meals at home with a sturdy kitchen table, chairs and stool.
Shower Room Ideally placed for a shower after sailing or a salty swim. right next to the front door with large fully tiled shower cubicle, wash basin and WC.
First floor Steep wooden stairs rise and turn to the first-floor landing, with oars and chunky rope cleverly designed to steady you as you mount. The three bedrooms and WC open off the landing.
Master Bedroom A carved wooden bed takes pride of place an eclectic mix of bedside tables and two chests of drawers. There’s a wash basin, ornamental fireplace and window overlooking a quiet courtyard.

What guests are saying
Nice seaside property, well located near beach and town centre.
Whilst the property is well located, unfortunately it didn’t look anything like it was made to be on the site.
It was also extremely dirty and unkept. The entire place smells of dust and humidity too. It was an unexpected experience!
Such a perfect
Good to know
