This is a little gem.
This is a little gem. Lovely location in a village with 3 pubs and a five minute stroll to a dog friendly beach. Secret Spot is very clean and equipped with everything you need for a short stay. Janet is super friendly and very helpful. We will visit again.

What a wonderful find and the perfect spot.
What a wonderful find and the perfect spot. Janet was great, so very welcoming and going the extra mile to make sure everyone had a treat on arrival. Our cockapoo loved his. A 2min walk to the beach where we walked every morning with local shops on hand for essentials. The cafe at Nottage was perfect and can highly recommended the Rose and Crown for food. Will definitely be back.
