Literally footsteps to the clifftop trails meandering down to a selection of crystal coves, a short stroll to cafes and takeaways, and around 2 minutes' drive (or 20 minutes' walk) to the bounty of wine bars, bistros and restaurants along Main Street, this delightful property would also thrive on the B&B market as two separate accommodations.
