2nd to 9th May 2026. Marie and Stuart were perfect hosts. The boathouse is tastefully designed and well equipped with everything you need. A great base for exploring the area. The town is a short easy walk along the beach when the tide is out. A bit further by road and a couple of hills to climb or descend but plenty of parking in the town if you Read moredecide to drive in. We had a great holiday and would thoroughly recommend. Hide

Should be made clear that the Boathouse is not actually on the seafront and the driveway entrance is difficult on a private lane.
