Moonraker Reviews

Andy
Fabulous location and lovely cottage for our winter getaway. The welcome hamper was phenomenal and made the trip extra special. We loved being able to walk the dog down to the beach within a couple of minutes and then return to this lovely cosy cottage for a cuppa. Denis was a very helpful host too and appreciated him checking everything was ok. We can heartily recommend :-)
Amy
We had a really lovely stay. Great location. The welcome basket was amazing!
Richard
A lovely holiday home in a peaceful location, only a short walk to the beach and to the pubs, shops and eateries in the village. A nice network of walking paths behind the chalet kept my dog so happy he did not want to go home at the end of the week.
David
Lovely character full chalet on a quiet cul-de-sac, a 5 minute walk away from the beach or village. Secure hedge and fence to keep toddlers or dogs from exploring too much. A double, twin and bunks would b perfect for a young family but prob not 6 adults. We loved it and a lovely hamper of goodies didn't help the diet.... definitely would come back
Pamela
A lovely cottage in a fantastic location. The welcome basket of goodies was wonderful and also milk and clotted cream was much appreciated. It's easy to walk to the beach from the cottage only 5 or 10 mins at a gentle pace. There's a pub and fish and chip shop within easy walking distance too. We had a great week and would definitely book again.
Adam
A lovely place to stay and enjoy some time away from home. Super clean and with everything you need. Amazing welcome basket of goodies, very much appreciated. Just a few minutes walk from the beach and the village but very quiet and secluded. Highly recommend.
