“Great view”

Reviewed 12 Sep 2020

This cottage is in a great position right on the estuary. 3 storey accommodation so be prepared to go up and down a bit but it all adds to the charm. Parking is in the main car park but you can get a weeks tourist pass and it's not far anyway. The sitting area is quite small and there's really only seating for four people. But if the weather's good you do have options on the balcony which are great. We had a great week mostly walking and a day hiring bikes on the Tarka Trail
