A great place to stay.

The location is stunning! The Bach is cosy but has everything you need. Mike was very gracious and helpful, providing kayaks, avocados and interesting chats. I'd definitely recommend this place for a quiet escape.

Magic spot

We had a wonderful 6 nights in this gem of a spot - private treehouse cabin in a beautiful bay. Think of it as ‘easy camping’ and you’ll enjoy it! Mike is a great host, super helpful and friendly and then leaves you to it. We will definitely be back.

Top location close by sea

The location is top. The set up a bit qurky with toilet and shower across the hut. And there is no kitchenette, just a corner cabinet with fridge on top, and dishes and cutlery in drawers. Microwave on top of fridge.no running water in hut

Left property after 2hrs

No more than a hut with bed and fridge hidden behind trees, toilet and shower across lawn. Very disappointing

Clearly Stuart never looked at the site properly before booking. This is suited far more to younger people for whom the majority love it as it is exactly what is advertised living on the beach experience perhaps more than Stuarts age bracket.
