    We had a problem during the stay but Sykes and the owner sorted this straight away. Would be happy to return. Lovely view, enjoyed sitting on the balcony.

    Great views over the estuary. Wonderful to sit on the balcony with an evening drink. Ideal location for Rock beach. Not the poshest property in town, but well maintained and great value.
