The apartment is very nice, spacious, and relaxing, with a well-appointed kitchen and a great bathroom/ensuite. Its in an excellent location, within easy reach of both the town and the beach. One thing to be aware of is that the approach on foot involves a very steep hill, which may be challenging for guests who are less mobile or those with bugRead moregies. We did find the apartment quite warm, as the underfloor heating was set higher than were used to, and it took a little time to cool down and find the right balance. The apartment has one TV, which is fairly small and operates on Freeview only. This was fine during the day as we were out enjoying the coastline, but in the evenings it felt a bit limiting if youre used to streaming services like Netflix or Prime. Id recommend bringing a Fire Stick or similar if thats important to you. Hide

Although the apartment has a "luxury" appearance and a price tag to match, particularly over the festive season, it is not particularly well maintained and there were aspects of cleanliness which fell well below expectations, including the oven, saucepans and dishwasher. It had not been well prepared for our arrival - it smelt of drains and needed Read morea good airing. Little detailed consideration had been given to guest comfort and convenience. Considering we were staying over Christmas Day, there were no festive decorations. The apartment has the potential to be a real "wow" - it is in a good location, the accommodation itself is well laid out, the parking convenient. It's a pity - it feels as if someone has just lost interest in providing a great customer experience. Hide

A great place to stay very clean, and a good size. Great with the dogs to have an enclosed area outside, and some grass garden. Also great to have parking for 2 cars. Walking distance to the town and beach (although up a hill on the way back!). Will defiantly look to return.

We had a lovely stay at Sunny Place which is a beautiful apartment. For us the location up the hill was fine however the only negatives were a few aspects of the cleaning. Cleaning service needs to be improved. Unfortunately the underfloor heating had been turned off and it took 24 hours to warm up.

It would have been nice to know that access was via very steep hills which is hard for people with a disability or an age, My wife and i could not walk to the town or the pier. When a repair was completed on our second day we were left keys which did not fit the two gates which was a nuisance. .

This is the second year at Sunny place. Parking is excellent and it has its own enclosed south west facing patio. Its great also for anyone with mobility issues as all on one level. If there was a down side, its a bit of a walk, if you have mobility issues to the bin store. However overall its a great place to stay.
