The cottage is in a great location. It is generally comfortable and well equipped. The bathrooms could be improved.

Cottage was in a great location but let down by old equipment and poor customer service. 1. No logs left in property. Mitigated quickly that afternoon. 2. Fridge/freezer leaked water onto the floor through our entire stay. Whilst they sent somebody out to fix the problem it was clearly either too difficult or they didnt care enough. Suffice we weRead morere left with more towels and deal with the problem ourselves by constantly having to mop up the water. 3. Promised call from the customer service team to confirm if they would fix the issue never materialised. A absolute lack of duty of care.

What a lovely cottage. Perfect location and the village is lovely. It is not a through road so relatively quiet. The cottage itself is very comfy particularly the beds. Its very nicely done up and had everything we needed. A lovely welcome pack and very useful soap, shampoo, washing up liquid etc. The owners seem to have thought of everything.

The cottage is cosy and in a fantastic location, however it wasnt clean. Very dusty, dirty in some parts and lots of cobwebs. No firewood on arrival. To improve the experience the cleanliness needs addressing and would benefit from a shower upstairs as the shower is very small downstairs.

Comfortable cottage in a Prime location. Nice start for many costal walks and the (very) nearby pub serves excellent food and ale. Friday chip van was really good too. Nice to take home and eat on the lovely front terrace.

Lovely, cosy cottage in a wonderful harbour side location. Stunning coastline walks right outside the door with a great local pub for evening drinks. If there are 4+ guests be warned that there isnt much storage for clothes and the upstairs bathroom is shared by all bedrooms, and the downstairs shower isnt the greatest. But, this didnt overshadowRead more our weeks holiday, the location and sea air more than made up for it! Hide

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Pegasus Cottage. The added bonus was the view of the bay and the lovely walks that are on the doorstep.

We recently stayed at Pegasus Cottage in Craster and while the location was absolutely perfectpeaceful, scenic and ideal for exploring the coastlinethere were a number of aspects that let the stay down. Firstly, the welcome book urgently needs updating. Key information such as bin collection days was missing and the parking instructions were uncRead morelear, which made our arrival more stressful than it needed to be. On entering the property, we noticed dust and cobwebs in the first master bedroom, and the mirrors and windows were particularly dusty and dirty, which made the space feel uncared for. There was also no welcome pack providedno milk, coffee, or teawhich was disappointing and not in line with the experience weve had at similar holiday cottages. The outdoor area also needs attention. There was no table to sit at, which was a letdown given the potential for enjoying the garden. More worryingly, we found smashed glass in the crevices of the patio, which was very dangerousespecially as we had a dog with us. The outdoor chairs were extremely worn, dirty, and uncomfortable, and really need replacing or at least a thorough clean. That said, the furnishings inside the cottage were comfortable and the beds in particular were very cosy. With a bit more care and attention to cleanliness, updated outdoor furniture, and clearer, more helpful guest information, this could be a truly wonderful place to stay. Hide

The cottage is in an ideal location. It is opposite the small harbour. Close to the pub and seaside walks. The three parking spaces were ideal. The accommodation is spacious, the bedrooms were ideal with the luxury of an extra bathroom. The kitchen was well laid out with plenty of storage space in the two fridges. The welcome pack went Read moredown very well. All in all, very good value for money and an ideal location. I would definitely stay there again. Hide
