Clean and comfortable, convenient for local shops, restaurants etc, and for coastal attractions. Only slight problem was he noise from the people upstairs ( heavy footsteps).Would also advise future visitors that the property is opposite S. J Palin Solicitors not Autopoint as stated as this has apparently closed down

The apartment was almost perfect except for there is a problem with damp. I had a really bad chest for most of the week.There were dehumidiefiers 'hidden' in every room and two air freshners in the vestibule but they did not do the job. Please get the problem solved as this beautiful apartment in a great location deserves better.
