The Shippen is a wonderful cosy cottage, fabulous views in a wonderful location.

The Shippen is just perfect for a break away, whether a mini break or a long break. It is equipped with everything you need and more. So comfortable and warm. Beds are very cosy. Parking is good for 2 cars. Very clean and tidy. Comes equipped with tea/coffee etc, even hand wash and washing up liquid, also day to day cleaning products like antibacterial etc. It is set in a beautiful location and the views are just stunning, especially when having a morning coffee outside watching the tide come in and even more so at night time when the tide goes out. Full WIFI, access to a landline also. I cannot fault this place at all. Home from home. One of the better places I've stayed. We didn't want to come home!...
