We had a great stay at this holiday house near the beach. The location was excellent, just a short walk to the shore, and the place was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The hosts were friendly and responsive. We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it.

Lovely shack in a peaceful town with breathtaking sunsets. Perfect for our family stay, plenty to keep the teens busy and had comfy beds. There were a few parties happening around us but we couldn't hear a thing inside. Seamless check in/out with great communication from our host.

We had an excellent Easter in Balgowan at the house. It is really well kitted out with everything you need. Very comfortable and a terrific deck out the front. Our boys loved the pool and table tennis tables in particular. We will definitely stay again!
