Youâre so close to the sea, it was perfect! The property its self is basic, but had everything we needed as a base to explore the island, the bed was comfy and all electrical items worked well. Not a negative at all for us, but I feel it should be mentioned for future guests, the books, games/ dvds mentioned in the description, there were none, not a problem for us. The TV is the size of a postage stamp, again not a problem with that magnificent view behind it! And we didnât realise we needed to bring our own towels, a quick trip to Asda was needed on our way, as we were told this by the owner when calling about key collection, again no problem, all minor things for us! We would most definitely book again!
