We had a wonderful week staying in the property. It was super snug and warm, amazingly clean when we arrived and it smelt lovely. Comfy beds and sofas, lovely fluffy towels. Great location.

I really could not have found a more pleasant home to stay in. But shh, don't tell everyone! Also weather was excellent, dining opportunities numerous and ice-creams on the pier all that was desired.
