There were 2 boxes which confused us especially as we arrived in the dark
Negative:
Directions to the property could have been clearer for the last part, an idea of how far along the road to go - or that there are 2 bins out by the gate - as we found it hard to see in the dark
Summary: We had a fab stay. House is great, v clean & v well equipped kitchen. Friendly check in from host.

Positive:
We really enjoyed our stay in the Sleepy Shell, it is a lovely cozy place and kept toasty all day. It had everything you could think of and it was great to be able to take our dogs. The location was fabulous, just up the road from a wonderful sandy beach and within easy reach of places to hike.
Negative:
There was a smell in the bathroom, and water took a while to drain. There was also mould on the ceiling in the front bedroom, probably due to it being vacant over winter. If these were resolved, we'd happily give the Sleepy Shell a rating of 10
