Beautiful house. Very comfortable and very spacious. Well equipped, could do with a few more basics but not really an issue. Perfectly located with a very short stroll to the beach. Good parking, pub next door which didn't disturb our holiday. A few local shops nearby but just a 5-10 minute walk into the centre of town. Just absolutely loved our stay. There were 3 adults and one dog......we all felt very comfortable and right at home. We will definitely be staying again!! ##### Cheryl Walton ### 8/10 Good #### Raymond M.
