Seagull's Nest is at 8 Prospect Place located off Church Street & the harbourside. With accommodation on four floors this is a period stone built Georgian Grade II listed property. The house can be accessed either by foot from Church Street or can be reached by car by parking on The Ropery and using the locked gate at the rear from which metal steps lead down to the yard and the cottage. This access is shared but there is the use of the large yard for the owners of number 8.
Entering the property from the "front" takes you into the basement or front ground level which is the kitchen.
