A lovely 2 nights in the perfect little beach side home. Was a little warm with no fans etc but can’t complain when you have the doors open to a beautiful beach. Neighbours were super friendly area was perfect.

Breathtaking view

We had a wonderful stay in Beach Retreat - the perfect escape from London life and truly memorable experience. The house was cosy and the view amazing. We loved sitting out on the decking and even had a swim in the sea at the end of the garden! Thank you Melinda for being very accommodating with our children and allowing us to check in early.

Lovely location and beautiful cabin, with all the facilities you need - backing onto the beach.Great support and communication from the host.Overall we had a great stay, but the neighbours played loud music until well after 3am on our last night and it did impact our time there. Not a fault of the host. No other reviews mention this - so might have just been our bad luck to have 2 nights of music.

Hi, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Sorry to hear about the loud music, it is certainly not usual! I'm able to contact the neighbours so another time do message me with any problems and I will do what I can to resolve them. Melinda

A beautiful bungalow right by the seafront with stunning views over the sea to watch the birds and nature go by. The bungalow has everything you need to spend a relaxing stay. It was the right size for my partner and I and our 11 yo son. Melinda was very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommended!

Idyllic chalet in beautiful Seasalter

This tasteful and well appointed chalet with great facilities is very close to the seafront, which you reach through a nice back garden. Swimming here was great as the shelf is quite steep so you get a good amount of time either side of high tide. The place itself is a pleasure to stay in and we can't wait to come again.

Magical

From the moment we arrived we knew we would be booking again in the near future. From the beautiful, cosy chalet to a location to die for (sand, sea and endless sky to the front and a nature reserve behind) it was everything we wished for.
