Spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable and great location for walking into Seahouses and the beach and surrounding areas. Garden not enclosed but a nice private sitting out area at the side of the house. Wasn't an issue for my dog as she doesn't wander but may be a problem for other dog owners. Would definitely stay again.
