Six of us visited for a family holiday and we really enjoyed our stay! The yard was big with plenty of space to sunlounge, play or sit around the fire. It's important to note that the property it set out best for 4 people, with only 4 chairs provided around the kitchen table, and it's a bit further away than expected from the beach (about a 10 minute walk). We would also recommend bringing additional kitchen items required, as the cooking/baking dishes are quite limited, and an axe/firewood for a fire if desired.Overall a lovely place to stay, we would recommend!

This property is not suitable for 6 people. The pull out couch was broken and was not convertible to a double bed. It was a single bed with a pull out trundle bed. It is not suitable for an adult or a teenager to sleep on. There are only 4 chairs as well.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 August 2026
Thank you for your feedback. As noted in our listing, the home accommodates up to 6 guests, but we state that it is best suited for 4 adults, with the additional sleeping space intended for extra guests. The pull-out sofa is designed to convert into a double bed, so we’re sorry to hear it did not function as expected during your stay. We will inspect it right away to ensure it is working properly. The dining area includes 4 chairs, as shown in our listing photos. We appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.

About the host

Hosted by Nicole Hick

Host profile image
I have a background in the service industry and am a professional interior designer. Hosting my own short-term rentals is a great way to combine my love of hospitality and design, and I enjoy creating comfortable, welcoming spaces for guests to enjoy!

Why they chose this property

The home is located on a quiet street, while still just steps from the lively downtown and a short walk to the beach. I love that you get the best of both worlds—peace and quiet at home, with the beach, shops, and restaurants close by.
