Nicely set up and convenient to beaches

Nice house, well laid out and comfortable. Excellent amenities. Proximity to the beach is Awsm. There’s even a clock with the tides on it which was very useful.

Review of stay from Nov 9th to Nov 15th

Internally the place was clean and tidy. We had problems getting the TV to work and a technician was arranged for us after 2 days. The problem required the replacement of the sensor on the scanning disc. After this was replaced and the technician tuned the TV to match, the rest of the week was trouble free. The lawns and hedges are overdue for a trim in our opinion. W and S Davison.

Our Experience

It was all that we expected given my wife's experience of Tindalls that dates from 1942 when the first sections were sold and her father bought one at the centre of the beach for 150 Pounds and built a bach that remained in the family for about 40 years.
