Very well equipped house.

Such a well equipped holiday house in a great location. The fenced in yard was perfect for our fur boy and our real boy enjoyed the books and games on the bookshelf. It was very easy to relax here, despite travelling with a 3 year old and thats really saying something. David is an absolute pleasure to deal with and extremely accommodating. We really appreciated the early check-in.Thanks for a lovely stay!

Older-style beach house in great location

We had a relaxing week at the Haven with our beach-loving spaniel. It’s an older-style beach house with some upgraded kitchen facilities but a fairly “original” bathroom. The front-porch recreation area is very comfortable, if a bit exposed, the enclosed backyard is ideal for a dog, and the location near two beaches and a kayak-friendly lake is excellent.

Charming Beach House

Ideal place to escape for a few days. Our little family of 3, along with our adored pooch, enjoyed beach walks (dog friendly) and relaxing on the deck. (First up gets the hammock!). The beach is just a short walk away, coffee shop close by and a large garden for the dog and all the amenities you need. Bliss.
