The scenic site was rated as the world’s 13th best beach in a recent Trip Advisor report, beating exotic locations in Greece, Italy and the Dominican Republic.

But the cottage offers more than just amazing views.

The two-bedroom property has been fully renovated, while "retaining the charm of the original building".
