Every need was covered for our oh! so too short stay of 2 nights! Thankyou to great hosts for our relaxing stay...we'll be back!
It was just what we needed. Host and hostess friendly and helpful, the room was extremely clean and tidy, bed comfortable. Milk, bread, three kinds of cereal, home-made biscuits and a fruit bowl waiting for us when we arrived. Surrounded by garden and a short walk to the view of the bay. We enjoyed it very much.
Beautifully clean bungalow close to the Beach in a quiet court
Location is perfect so close to the Beach, also in a peaceful quiet court but still close enough drive to get to shops etc. I loved how well thought out the bungalow is the small touches to the suite was amazing it felt like a home away from home. The bed was Super comfortable and the breakfast provided 🤤 and fruit super generous. Overall exceeded my expectations, the cleanliness is impeccable and the service from Denise and family was fantastic and both are super friendly and

This Bungalow was in lovely surroundings and well located to all facilities. The attention to detail in the bungalow was top quality. The little added touches, we had chocolate brownies and a fruit platter waiting for us, were amazing and very unexpected. The hosts, Denise and Ian, were extremely helpful and friendly.
Ian, can you please let John know when the submarine races are on so we can book the bungalow and get back down there to watch it. Thank you again to you both for such a lovely set up and your kindness. Hope to see you again soon, John and Lisa
