    The Cottage on the Terrace was exactly as described which means it was comfortable and cosy and had everything we needed. All the condiments and tea and coffee in the kitchen and even milk and juice in the fridge were very much appreciated. The location was great with the hot springs less than 10 minutes away and restaurants and cafes even closer. We would definitely stay here again.

    We hadn't understood there was no wifi but it provided the opportunity to switch off, relax, listen to music, watch dvds and read! Comfortable set up with all we needed and also a secluded rambling back garden. We had a great time and would happily return

    My stay at the cottage was great. It was clean, cozy and well put together. Had to drive a bit to get to the shops but we did not mind it. Happy that the beach was not too far to get too. The only thing I would fix is to pave the rest of the driveway. In the end my family and I would stay again at the cottage.
