Mrs Adkins
Superb property and we ate outdoors most of the time. Ideally situated for both beach and town. Parking was occasionally difficult but parking in the driveway of Marram House meant allowed meant that one family member could park across the drive.

Great sized holiday home, perfect location for the pier and beach and only a 10 minute walk to the town . Wonderful holiday home for sharing with friends or extended family, beautiful views. Just in need of some TLC and finishing touches

A great house for an extended family weekend - with a large dining kitchen where we could all sit down together. It has a ideal location - within walking distance of both the pier and the sandy beach.
