Quiet area and a short walk to the beach. Secure yard for our dog with food and water bowls provided. Very pet welcoming! Lots of attention to detail in all rooms. Very clean property. Enough space for us and our teenage children. Looking forward to a return visit!

I recently went through cancer treatment and wanted to get away with my family for a relaxing weekend not too far away from home, to rejuvenate and make memories as a family. This gorgeous little beach shack provided our family with a beautiful, cosy and warm home that even welcomed our dog. It had everything we needed. The beds are very comfortable. The beach walks were so close and the cafe served up amazing food.Our kids are already planning to return! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
