The location receives unanimous acclaim for being perfect, with direct beach access and proximity to town. It is described as quiet yet central, offering stunning views and a priceless setting.
The property is frequently described as cosy and comfortable, with a particularly comfy bed. However, some guests noted the creaky bed and the low ceilings and beams as minor discomforts.
