"We had a fantastic week at Shipload - I don't think I've ever been anywhere as quiet and peaceful."
Breakfast on the patio in the sun listening to nothing but birds, distant sheep and the leaves rustling was heaven. The cottage was cute, comfortable and very clean, and a perfect base for driving the coast or heading inland. The hosts Ali and Ian were lovely, and gave loads of tips on places to go and where to get the best food. We'll definitely be recommending Yapham cottages.
