Omg this place was absolutely amazing! It was home from home and more.

Omg this place was absolutely amazing! It was home from home and more. Anything you need is there. It is very comfortable and relaxing. Most places eg town/ supermarket are a 5/10 minutes drive away and the beach is approximately 15 mins away. The Beehive is a perfect comfortable base. If you have dogs they have beds, treats, dishes, poo bags .... Everything! We had lots of lovely days out and nights in, we wouldn't hesitate recommending the Beehive to anyone, we will certainly be booking it again.
