Just Booked my dream 4x4 Cottage 'Murroch Bay'
Been trying to book this for a few years now, but always been booked when we wanted to stay, well until now! Booked for Feb Half term (10th) for 1 week
The drive down to it is very interesting, as you can see from the video, 4x4 only
Can take 2 dogs also
Something lovely to look forward to 2018 Iggy/Ieuan

Some good friends of mine got married on the beach there a few years back. Cottages for family, tents on the edge of the beach for the rest of us. Trucked the whole kit and caboodle in and out by LR.
It's a truly wonderful location - enjoy!

I've often looked at that place over the years, it's regularly advertised in LRO and other LR/ 4X4 magazines. I think the properties have been refurbished in recent years.
