Stairs lead up to a galleried bedroom nestling in the eaves, while a corridor off the sitting room gives access to 3 other cosy bedrooms on the ground floor.Newgale with its long, sandy beach popular for surfing and other water sports, can be tried at the hire shop, only 2 miles away; a cafe on the beachside adds to your enjoyment.
