The Nest - a cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

This 19th century granite built fisherman's cottage is a wonderful mix of the old and new, with exposed wooden floorboards and original beams but with all the modern touches you require for today's lifestyle. Originally built in the traditional style over a net store and fish cellar which raises the cottage above the road level, The Nest is accessed by several time worn granite steps leading up to the stable door giving the property a very private feel, just moments from all the beaches, shops and the Island car park.

First Floor
Sitting room. This spacious and cosy room has 2 comfortable settees, wicker armchair, dining table with seating for 4, 32" LED flatscreen TV with built in DVD player and an electric flame effect fire. Window seat to front.
Kitchen. Ample storage and work space with window to back. Breakfast bar, oven with ceramic hob, microwave, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge etc.
Bathroom. White tiled with claw foot bath, walk-in electric shower, wash basin, WC, heated towel rail, overhead fan heater, shelving and storage cupboard.

Second Floor

Bedroom 2. Window to front. Bunk beds and chest of drawers.
