“Fabulously comfortable and very well-equipped with everything you’ll ever need!”
Delicious scones/jam/cream on arrival, thank you! Lovely sea view, extremely quiet, really close to the high street shops and the sea, private single garage parking was perfect. What more could one ask for! Thank you for a wonderful week! Wish we could have stayed longer!
The only thing missing was a soap dish and shampoo/shower gel rack in the showers, which would have been very useful instead of keep having to reach down to use these items (especially bad for people with bad backs/disabled people).
You should tell hirers in advance that you also provide tea towels, hand soap, washing up liquid, dishcloths, dishwasher tablets, tea, coffee, sugar/sweetener, as we brought our own and didn’t need to!
Otherwise, a perfect week!

The property
Aptly named Slipway Cottage is enviably located beside the gardens in the prestigious waterside development of Packet Quays just fifty feet from the slipway.
Approached from a courtyard by a flight of stone steps one cannot fail to be impressed by the atmosphere created within this tasteful mix of luxury cottages and apartments wherein nautical elements prevail.
A stylish reversed level cottage with stunning views over waterways busy with colourful sail boats and vessels of all kinds, a unique holiday experience awaits.
Displaying a superb double aspect the living room is effectively unified into separate lounge and dining areas by an integral staircase.
An undeniably relaxing space smartly furnished with deep comfy sofas in beach themed stripes on one side and a dining room opening onto a new slick, uncluttered kitchen on the other.
Large windows and doors open onto a balcony which virtually spans the frontage on two sides provide a choice of vantage points from which to enjoy the ever changing scene.
Downstairs balconied bedrooms boast super king beds which separate into twin beds for versatility, hand crafted furnishings and fabrics in sea washed colours.
An en-suite shower room and lavish bathroom provide excellent facilities.
