Nice neighbourhood - convenient location

Very pretty neighbourhood, short drive to shops, and a walk to the beach. We were busy with lots of outside activities so didn't stay much at the accommodation, which was perfect, as it was quiet, clean, safe and convenient for this type of holiday. If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing garden to spend a lot of time in then you might prefer a different location as this house - and all the houses along the beach in this area - have the main local road running between the beach and the houses. So in the picture where you see the back garden, there is a road behind the trees. Still beautiful to watch the sun come up in the morning etc. Overall we would stay here again.

Perfect Location, lovely stay!

Lovely stay for our family. Super clean and tidy, directly across from the beach. Everything you need. Hopefully we weren't too annoying as we were in and out a lot with a basketball tournament! Despite being the ground floor there was no noise at all from the other homes. Highly recommend!

great place to stay, quiet and well equipped. A couple of very minor issues 1. the door on the bedroom with the double bed rattles at night in windy conditions and needs attention. 2. There is a need for additional power points in lounge area, either than or a long extension lead e.g. for iron.
