Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage. Loved walking to the beach, coast path and pub from the door. Enjoyed cooking on the Aga. Just a shame that no parking available outside the property

Pitt Cottage is a lovely property and overall was as expected. Its quite cosy for 8 people, but more than sufficient. The Aga kept it lovely and warm, although cooking on it for the inexperienced was a learning curve! The cottage was clean, tidy and well appointed, although a few expected necessities were limited (toilet roll, hand soap and candlesRead more for the power cut we had in the last day!) but if you are well prepared, then not a problem. The location was lovely, Branscombe is very picturesque, even in the wind and rain. I would say one pub was walking distance, the other definitely not at night time in December. All in all, we had a fabulous time! Hide
