Surrounded by farmland and neighbouring the sand dunes and some of those long blonde sandy beaches that the area is famed for, you find an old farm steading with an ideal holiday home within.
The very well-proportioned accommodation includes a large open-plan living/dining room with a wood burner for those cold evenings and an arched window and door leading to the gardens and decking area. The kitchen is well-equipped and has the modern appliances included that you would expect to find in any good holiday rental - microwave, dishwasher, coffee grinder, just enough to make things that little bit easier. Both bedrooms are double size and attractively finished. One of the rooms has a kingsize bed and the other can be set as either a single bed with a pull-out bed underneath, or a superking sized bed. The bathroom was also a pleasant surprise due to the generous size and modern finish with white suite and over bath mains shower. Beach 1 mile. Shop 4 miles, pub and restaurant 5 miles.

This was truly a home away from home. The owners had thought of every little detail to make your stay comfortable - underfloor heating, a well-stocked kitchen with dishwasher and washing machine, boardgames for rainy days, a log burner ... the quality of the furniture and fixtures was next to none. We found it to be exceptional value for money and would absolutely return!

Beautiful house, the photos really dont to the place justice. It is a huge space with excellent facilities. It has been done out to such a high standard but still kept its original charm. Jake & Lisa were great hosts, communicated so much information prior and the what three words location took is straight to the house. Its a 10 minute walk acros the field and over the bridge then youre on the dunes of the beach. I imagine it would be the most perfect spot in the summer with an outdoor area & table very nice and private. Inside there is everything you need to feel away from the world but without being cut off! Thank you so much for a lovely stay and we hope to be able to come back for longer in some slightly warmer weather!
