Everything we needed for a peaceful weekaway with a lively but easily anxious dog.

Everything we needed for a peaceful weekaway with a lively but easily anxious dog. Theproperty was cheerful, clean and welcoming,with useful touches to make life easier suchas the outdoor pooch and boot shower andthe extra blankets for throwing over thesofas. There's space to park on the propertyand it is fully fenced front and back for peaceof mind where dogs or kids are involved. Itwas extra nice to have some grass in theback garden for laying out in the sun,especially enjoyed by the dog plus a goodselection of tables and chairs dotted frontand back for the people. The owners werevery friendly and available whilst also beingrespectful and non-intrusive, just what weneeded.The beach (sand and pebble) is on the doorstep, but the access down is steep and canbe slippery with sand in places. It waspopular but not overly crowded. We saw theoccasional seal go past, lots of birds and jellyfish.We relied on facilities within walking distance;There's a delicious bakery, a well-stockedcorner shop and takeaways (some deliveriesfrom further out). The bungalow is on theedge of a holiday chalet park and there wasa nice ambience of people happily potteringabout but it dlidn't feel crowded or noisy while we were there.We had the perfect balance of busy andrelaxed, and before leaving we bookedsneaky return visit using the remainder of ourannual leave for later in the year. There's still plenty to explore further afield. Really looking forward to that!
