The perfect holiday

Ian983 Morecambe
Review Submitted: November 2, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
Burghead Cottage was all that it promised to be. The facilities, the decor and the location could not be faulted.
Within a five minute walk were open views across the Firth, a very friendly local - the Harbour Inn - which does very good meals, the harbour with friendly seals and even a butty van to get that early morning bacon roll after walking the dog along wide empty beaches....we're going back for more in 2010. We can sum up Burghead Cottage in just two words....GO THERE.....

Our Holiday at Burghead

Jasper's owner West Yorkshire
Review Submitted: October 26, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
A very well equipped cottage with all the comforts of Home.
Well placed for walking locally or a short drive to most of the regions attractions. We particularly enjoyed walking along the beach of an evening which seemed to be a popular evening activity with many others.
I would definately recomend this cottage to anyone who is used to a high standard of accommodation.
