great place, great location, great amenities. But that main bed was to hard for my liking and thats the only negative. Fantastic value and so tidy and well maintained. The area for the dog was secure, didnt have to worry about her once.

Exactly as advertised! A great layout, plenty of room for 5 of us. Nice and close to the beach and plenty of shops, takeaways etc within 10min drive. We enjoyed our stay and this house made it easy for us to have a stressless time. Plenty of appliances available in the kitchen, coffee machine was a bonus. Only small problem was that we didn’t find the washing machine/dryer until the last day. Check the garage people!
