We had a fantastic stay over Christmas, the property is so well equipped with some nice touches, ie the Xmas tree. The kids playroom is great, well fenced yard for our dog, comfortable beds, plenty of room. Easy walk to the beach at the end of the street and walkable distance to main blacksmith beach/grannies pool, wished we could of stayed longer
