Great house and location

We thoroughly enjoyed a long weekend in the well appointed house. It has everything you need to relax and unwind with just the right amount of space both inside and out. Access to the beach is very easy. Whilst the neighbours are close you still felt secluded. Would definitely recommend and would hope to be lucky enough to stay again.
