"Had a wonderful time. Wish we could’ve stayed longer. The cottage is so cute. It’s next to so many restaurants. We just didn’t have time to try them all. There’s a nice little walk down to the edge of the cliff you can sit and relax and just enjoy a sunset. Very cute."

It had been used as an apartment by the owner’s college age son, and his idea of cleaning it was ridiculous: • Bathroom was filthy – worst was the very grimy exhaust.
