Thanks so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you found the place comfy and enjoyed the easy access to the beach and fishing spots. Hope to welcome you back soon!
We had a fantastic stay over Christmas, the property is so well equipped with some nice touches, ie the Xmas tree. The kids playroom is great, well fenced yard for our dog, comfortable beds, plenty of room. Easy walk to the beach at the end of the street and walkable distance to main blacksmith beach/grannies pool, wished we could of stayed longer
