We really loved the cottage’s fantastic location — it’s a beautiful spot and the setting is a real highlight. It’s also clear that the bathroom and parts of the kitchen have been updated recently, which we appreciated. As other reviewers have mentioned, though, some areas of the cottage do feel a little dated and in need of further attention. There was a damp smell when we arrived and the dehumidifier was quite noisy while running. The hob and oven appear to be older and the hob struggled to heat pans effectively, and some of the furniture (particularly the sofa and chairs) wasn’t very comfortable. The second bedroom layout, where the door opens straight onto the bunk beds, also felt a little awkward, but it is a very small room and there is no other option. Overall, the cottage has a lot going for it and could be truly lovely with some additional investment and finishing touches. With those improvements, it would really make the most of its wonderful location....

Cottage very well located, views over the bay beautiful, parking directly outside is very handy. However living room furnishing not comfortable and on arrival we found cutlery and mugs notably dirty. Internal doors to bedrooms and from living room to internal hall did not fit to frames so could not be fully closed...

Views, views, views. We have been to Portscatho many times, as I love it here. But this is the first time I have stayed in the village centre. We lucked out with the weather, a week of almost unbroken sunshine, we were hardly indoors. We cooked some scallops and crab linguini, buying the ingredients at the local farm shop. The location is great, pop for a swim at the local beach and you can then hop straight into a hot shower back at the apartment. The village has an excellent coffee shop, gelato shop, lunch at The Hidden Hut, interesting gallery/gift shops, lots of rock pools to explore. The clearest of seas for swimming, paddle boarding and it is never that busy....

Just a couple of minor niggles, otherwise we cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Lovely apartment with fabulous views over the bay. The property is located off the road at the start of a cul-de-sac. Very handy for the SW costal path.
