Summary: The house was great, it was very clean and well equipped. The kitchen and bathroom are new and up to date. Comfortable beds and 2 minutes walk from the harbour.....what more could you want! The staircase to the kitchen and bathroom is steep with a low ceiling, so only the able bodied and sure footed should visit, but we loved the charm of it and reversing into the kitchen :).
