Perfect location for our needs.We did get some unexpected visitors a couple of hours after our arrival. Our vehicle had gone to the beach but my daughter and I were still at the house so these visitors abruptly left again when they realised that there was someone at the property.

Awesome holiday!

Absolutely perfect. Clean house, and warm too. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well set up. Thanks for allowing the dogs. The goat Kevin across the road was hilarious and the cows next door keen to say hi. Really close to the beach, and the information book really helpful. Highly recommend this property for a holiday, and we will definitely be back.

Lovely Location

Warm and comfortable spaces. Only down sides, were no WIFI passwords given and Owner didn't respond to request. First aid kit was empty of plasters. An instruction manual for the oven would have helped also.

Awesome quite location

Great quite place to stay. Awesome if you have dogs.. fenced in section and beaches close by for them to run around. Amazing cliffs and scenery at the beaches.. so unusual to see snow covered mountains behind a beach like that! We collected so many gem stones the kids loved it :-) friendly people at the local pub which is a 2 min walk away they really accommodate for kids there as well with toys and these 2 awesome chatty parrots as well! Food was awesome and the beer was cheaper then your usual city pub. We would definitely go back.

Great space for family get away

Perfect spot for a quick getaway. Shame the beds in sleep out where like hammocks. I ended up sleeping on the couch for 2 nights as double bed and bunks in sleep out where not made for people with bad backs. The door handle to the bathroom was almost falling off. Which kinda freaked me out As I thought I’d get locked in. Overall great place to stay.
