Not the best of access roads into the village. Steep narrow windy road with no passing places. Village Is one row of picturesque houses. Pub only open for part of week, so we missed out on lunch for our visit.

There is a small area to park in the village, but care is needed. The village is small so wandering along the street makes a short but pretty walk. On low tide some of the rocks on the beach can be better explored to the west.
