The hot tub is a highlight, offering relaxation with a view. The property is dog-friendly, with thoughtful touches for pets. Some minor issues were mentioned, but overall, guests had enjoyable stays and would recommend the property.
The property is frequently described as clean and well-maintained, with several reviews highlighting its spotless condition. Only one minor mention of a slippery shower floor suggests room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach and quiet surroundings, with beautiful sea views. However, one review mentioned incorrect directions, and another noted the steep walk back from the beach.
Comfort is well-regarded, with mentions of comfortable beds and a cosy atmosphere. However, one review noted that the beds were a bit short for taller individuals, and another suggested that one of the bedrooms was too small for a double bed.
Facilities are generally appreciated, especially the hot tub and well-equipped kitchen. Some reviews suggest improvements, such as a place to dry wet gear and concerns about the slipperiness of the shower floor.
Many reviews express gratitude for the thoughtful touches, such as welcome packs for both humans and pets. However, it should be noted that while such gifts are often appreciated, they are not guaranteed with every stay.
