Dogs are welcome (max 2) upon payment of supplement of £15 per dog. Please do not allow your dogs on the furniture or upstairs or leave them unattended.

We suggest this property is not suitable for anyone with limited mobility due to the steps required to access the cottage from the parking area.

Children are welcome at West Wind, but please note that the rear garden is steep and there are many steps, so we recommend that children must be supervised.

The patio area at the front of the cottage is enclosed, but a very small dog may be able to get through the balustrade. The rear garden is enclosed and a hand rail follows the steps to the side of the cottage and all the way up to the seating area at the top of the garden.

Amazing views
We had a wonderful half-term week in West Wind. The weather was very kind to us, so we managed to make the most of the wonderful coastal walks and the decked terrace — where we relaxed, ate meals and enjoyed the amazing views. The house was spotlessly clean and very well appointed with everything we needed. Our dog loved her stay too.

Peaceful and lovely views
It was extremely good value, very well equipped, warm and we loved the views. Garden not ideal if you have several dogs or several children as limited level space but the front decking was glorious!

Sehr schönes Haus in guter Lage
Perfekt. Tolles Ambiente, gute Ausstattung. Einziges kleines Manko: Für uns 3 Personen gab es 3,5 Rollen Toilettenpapier und 2 Tabs für die Spülmaschine. Das ist bei einem Aufenthalt von 5 Tagen dann doch ein bisschen wenig.
