Jul 20, 2018 #### Cosy two person beach side villa We stayed at the retreat during a blustery and cold weekend in July. The fire was lit continuously and did a reasonable job of keeping us warm. The other heater was not up to the job. Having said that, the Retreat was well appointed, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed it immensely, happy to be back after days braving the weather. Many thanks Grace for your hospitality and congratulations on a stylish comfortable retreat. ##### MAARTEN V. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charmayne S.

Inside the house, it was immaculately clean and well presented, very homely feeling & cosy. Loved the fireplace and ample wood supplied. Bed & pillows were super comfy. Loved the views and managed to capture an aurora on one of the nights we were there. Overall a great experience and would definately recommend :-) Feedback: (\* Cleanliness - 1 star deducted as the outside of the house & outdoor furniture had lots of cobwebs that could do with some attention to detail) (\* Accuracy of listing - 1 star deducted as it should have been mentioned that there are steep steps to the house - also our car was unable to fit down the steep driveway... As we are older folks we found this quite challenging especially with our luggage) ##### Charmayne S. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine Apr 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Absolutely a 10/10 review for this place. The views are spectacular and definitely a lot of planning has gone into the property to ensure absolute comfort. A definite recommendation to pick here if choosing a relaxing getaway. Can’t wait to plan our next trip and stay here again. I encourage all who stay to read the little book about the property in the book area and the amazing planning and thought that has gone into the retreat. Don’t hesitate, book this place now, also great ammenities and very clean kitchen/lounge area with a fireplace. My only concern if you’re reading this is hopefully your dates when booking don’t overlap with ours when we want to come back again!! Thanks for a great relaxing place to stay Grace. Oh, and PS I read in a review and your disclaimer of minor debris/cobwebs out the back due to beach conditions - I can honestly say the back of the property is in pristine condition also. And really peeps if you worry about such a minor detail booking this retreat that’s crazy as the view is at the front of the property. Thanks again so much for this stay Grace - an anniversary getaway we will remember and up there as one of the best❤️😊 ##### Christine Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Beverley B.
