Lovely, thank you

It is set on the edge of town - a short walk to the centre and even shorter walk to Porthminster beach and the coastal path. It was very well equipped - we had everything we needed. Set over 3 floors with a variety of outside spaces to catch the sun at different times of the day including a small enclosed garden which was lovely for our hound. We would love to return.
