TheCaptain couldn't find on 9th Jun 2005 I had a long walk around the coastal path here, after parking the campervan for the night, but I could not find a way to access the wood within which this dolmen lives, as there are lots of big holiday homes and houses with big fenced gardens surrounding it all.

Six stones are visible at this site in a private garden
