Nice place in nice location

Everything was ok. It’s a shame there is no wifi. Unfortunately there was only one pan so I had to purchase some of my own while I was up there so o could cook. The cutlery was very dirty. Apart from that the house was nice. Thankyou

Mum and Daughter getaway

House could have done with a tidy up in the garden and items laying around outside (appeared to be untidy). On the inside we had cobwebs and dust. The single beds (obviously these were for kids, I was the youngest at 53)) were uncomfortable as spring could be felt through the mattress. Overall a pleasant stay.

Clean and tidy house with a great gelato around the corner

We stayed during the recent long weekend and relaxed. The house was clean and had everything we need. Our daughter loved the lounge chairs (of all things) and there is also a bonus great gelato place around the corner meaning we had too much ice cream as a result. The beach is across the road and easilly accessible. Thank you for a lovely stay.

'Good clean house'

Clean house. Loved as walking distance to beach. Only problem was hot water system issues. once in the bath, you get on & off hot water & then cold water. Also water prasure is so low & couldn't get good quality bath after having whole day activities. Other than that nothing elste to complain.
