“July 2020 stay at Colebrook”

Reviewed 23 Jul 2020

Many thanks to Norma who managed to accommodate my family and I at Colebrook at rather short notice. We really enjoyed our time there despite the unusual circumstances. The house itself was very clean and comfortable and we spent most of our time as a family in the bright, sunny kitchen/dining area in the modern extension at the back of the house. My three year old daughter especially loved watching all the birds and seeing the plants in bloom in the garden whilst having her breakfast! Great having the beach so close and we were really lucky to see a minke whale from the rocks near the lighthouse at the entrance to the bay. Very friendly neighbours which we enjoyed chatting with and great food at steam packet Inn - worth the trip down again just for the fish pie! We hope to come back and stay again at Colebrook.

In our new extension at the rear we have tried to offer our guests the most modern of facilities but still retain the old cottage feel throughout the rest of the house..
