Enjoyed our stay here Garden a little over grown so unable to take advantage of warm evenings. Kitchen equipment excellent although cupboards could do with an upgrade but were clean. Bedside cabinets a bit rustic. But the art was awsome a very pleasant little hide away close to beach.

A really comfortable property, great location and well equipped. Parking was a bonus as there was a bus stop nearby so we hardly used the car. About a 15 minute stroll into town, 5 minutes to the beach. Loved the art and ceramics on display. Highly recommended.

It was beautifully decorated and the beds and lounge furniture were very comfortable and it had everything we needed including the welcome goodies in the kitchen and bathroom. The owner herself was a lovely lady who came to sort the TV out and gave us very helpful local hints

Lovely property, clean and bright. Having the private outdoor 'wild' garden space to sit in the shade was a bonus.
