Fox House is situated in a quiet street in the middle of an estate. Plenty of fields nearby for dog walks ( but wellies needed if the weather isn’t good) The house was nice & clean, well equipped and was as described. With regard to local amenities, there was a farm shop just up the road but otherwise the nearest shops were a 5 minute drive away. However, it is a great location for getting to all the lovely local beaches also a short drive away. We found the locals very welcoming at the Tiger Inn pub where they had a good selection of real ales and the food was also very good.
