Seamless booking and check in experience located a 2 minute walk to main shops and 3 minutes to beach. Great little place. Property was very clean. Only suggestion would be to get a new mattress. Will be back.
We enjoyed our stay here and will definitely come to stay again. We loved having use of the double garage and how close the house was to everything. Communication with the host was excellent. The home provided all the extras that you don’t normally get in a Stayz house like shampoo, conditioner, tissues all cleaning products. We enjoyed most not having to have to take our own linen, bath towels etc. Made our holiday much more convenient without all the washing on our return. Thank you.
The location of this property is what made me book it for weekend as it is within a very easy stroll to cafes, the pub and the beach. The property was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The host was very prompt and accomodating with any requests or questions I had. The bed in the master bedroom wasn't great for my back (but that could be personal preference as the other beds seemed fine). The only suggestion for improvement would be to add
a full length mirror in one of the bedrooms. Would recommend
