No extras like loo roll, salt or washing up liquid, so bring everything. Only half size dishwasher. Clean and comfortable. Garden and stairs are not the most child friendly.

We have just returned from a wonderful week in Crecceith. The house is beautifully light and with Good size rooms and facilities. Itâs so quiet and peaceful and you have a view of the sea and castle from the front of the house. Itâs 5 minute walk to the seafront, shops and restaurants nearer. Crecceith has everything you need for a week. Good restaurants, cafes and pubs. Train station if you want a change of transport and great walks on the costal path from the house. Only negative would be couldnât find a prop to open the sky lights but otherwise everything perfect.
