We loved our stay in Shore Cottage! We were looking for a quiet few days where we could park up the car and fully relax. Shore Cottage was perfect for this, the house was lovely and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the walks around the house and letting the dog play in the sea. The cottage was quiet and perfect to sit reading a book looking out the window, we even spotted a few deer just outside the door! We are already looking at coming back to shore cottage next year.

Shore Cottage is in a beautiful, peaceful setting and the beach is 5 minutes walk away.

Shore Cottage is in a beautiful, peaceful setting and the beach is 5 minutes walk away. You can't see it from the cottage (as implied by pictures). The cottage is beautiful and spotlessly clean. Very comfortable bed. Hairdryer was provided but not mentioned in info. The appliances are all new and good quality, except the Nespresso machine which leaked and wasn't usable. Kitchen was well-equipped. There was a welcome pack and the milk and bread were particularly useful as there are no local shops at all! Nearest about 7 miles away. Local pub was lovely, friendly and excellent food (you need to book); also The Hive cafe was very nice. The enclosed garden was perfect and safe for our dog, and the hosepipe to wash him after muddy walks was an excellent idea. I couldn't write in the visitors' book because I didn't have a pen. The cottage was lacking a few personal touches (obviously run by an agent) eg. there were no books or games for rainy days. Magazines in the rack dated 2019. There was a CD player but no CDS. No signal for the radio in the kitchen. Not vital, but would have been nice, especially in poor weather. The TV signal was very poor - and it rained heavily one day so we could have done with it! The throws on the sofa were a brilliant idea to keep it clean, and we brought our own as well. Reasonably dog friendly with throws to protect furniture and dog towels provided - dog bowls would be useful. The dog had a wonderful time. The wifi did work quite well for whatsapp and browsing, and we had a phone signal too. There was nobody booked next door at Orchard cottage so it was very peaceful - might be different if it was occupied. A lovely place, especially for walking and enjoying the arboretum and gardens.
