Down a small staircase is the lounge with comfy seating, Smart TV and bi fold doors with fabulous uninterrupted sea views. Back through to the kitchen are stairs leading up to the three bedrooms. The first is a single room with TV, dual aspect and lots of natural light, next door is a stunning stylish bathroom with freestanding bath and WC, the perfect place to soak and relax after a long day on the beach. Next door is a good size double room followed by the master which is a beautiful king-size room with walk in wardrobe and fabulous balcony with seating.

We absolutely love Fairwinds and this was our second time. We love the decor and comfort of the place ad that the property has direct access to the beach.

Lovely cottage in a great location. 3 bedrooms set up for 5 people but with only 1 bathroom it was a bit conjested at times. We obviously managed fine but a second toilet would make a great difference. A decent sized bathroom that would benefit from a shower.

Fairwinds is a lovely cottage in a wonderful location. There are just a couple of drawbacks. Entry to the property does require two hands while standing on a narrow step, so not the easiest. Then whilst the main bedroom is quiet the other two bedrooms are on the front and you do very clearly hear everyone walking past and their conversations.
