    We visited this property as a surprise 16th birthday trip for my daughter, This home absolutely exceeded our hopes. From the moment we walked in, the house felt serene and welcoming, with thoughtful personal touches. The photos of the owners and their family, along with the history of the house, created such a warm, homely atmosphere. The games room was a huge hit—perfect for keeping the kids entertained while dinner was cooking. With no TV we all spent time together playing games and relaxing by the log burner. And the sea views from the kitchen and bedrooms were simply breathtaking. The garden is the perfect addition to the house, offering a lovely space for stargazing, toasting marshmallows, and walking the dog. It truly felt like a little retreat. The nearby beach is beautiful, and we loved the cosy café with hot drinks as well as the local pub. We will definitely be returning. This property is truly a 5-star escape
