The documentation provided with our accommodation includes:
Shortcut if you are walking down the town - turn left at the entrance 30m, then turn right down the broken road, past the house with the large chimney's when you have just over the 2nd speed bump, turn left down the path at the dyke, follow the path downhill turning right, through the bushes you will come to railings, cross the road and follow the road round to the left, then turn right down church road, or just go down any of the lanes, remember to just keep heading down hill and you will reach the main street (Victoria Street)...

This sounded very complicated, and we were a bit daunted - and of course, having arrived by car, we had taken a circuitous route to get here. Also, the forecast was for rain. But we gathered up our courage, and discovered that the only thing that was less than obvious was that initial right turn and the 'broken road', a track which takes you unexpectedly uphill. Once over the fold of the hill, the road down is clear, though not as described (we did not at any point plunge into the bushes), and takes you between the leading lights towards the harbour.

Turn left, and follow the street wherever you want to go:

Know that route down well and it's not exactly as complex as described here, is it?
