Lovely weekend

Flat was very clean, and ideally located to get to the beach. Very good value for money.

Excellent flat in quiet cul de sac close to excellent beach

A very nicely placed flat in a quiet cul-de sac with free private parking perfectly located a short distance up a shallow hill very close to the beach, surf hire, cafes and pub. The arm chairs in the kitchen / lounger are very comfortable and the free TV is very easy to use with plenty of channels. The kitchen is well kitted, but could do with a separate light as there is only one switch for the whole room and if the curtains are open neighbours in the terrace opposite can see in. We turned it off to enjoy private meals with a view of the beach. The large bed in the top bedroom is super comfortable and one of the best I've ever slept in. You can't open the sole window in the roof of this room but its ventilation hatch does a good job over time and there's a better view of the beach when standing. There are no photos of the outside of the flat probably because it's the top floor of a bland looking mid-terrace. It doesn't show up on Google Maps because the road name is missing even though it's the same name as the road before it. It 's also easy to confuse it with Diftwood Cottage, which is shown on Google Maps.but is completely unrelated. The beach is fabulous and goes out a long way at low tide with good caves to explore and excellent RNLI protection. Walk a mile north on the coastal path and you'll find famous tin mine ruins. The area is well organised and quiet at night and overall I highly recommend this property.
