    “A beautifully presented cottage.”

    It was clean and tidy and the welcome basket (including dog treats) was lovely! The pub where we ate most nights was a 2 minute walk and the staff are very friendly. It’s a very quiet spot where you can go just to relax, not too far in the car to the sea. If I’m being picky I agree with the other reviews that the metal beds and mattresses are uncomfortable and all 5 of us didn’t sleep that well, but we really did love the cottage itself.

    We are really glad you enjoyed your stay at South Glebe and are very lucky to have the pub nearby . We understand personal preferences can differ regarding mattresses and will take any comments on board for future improvements. Thank you for leaving South Glebe so clean and tidy and we hope to welcome you back again . Property Owner
