The house is very well-equipped and spacious, with a lovely big garden which the children particularly enjoyed. The location is great, with a choice of beautiful beaches nearby and the village pub with excellent food right next door. We hope to be back!

Great for two families with young children. Lots of space. Showers good. Beds comfortable and big enough. Kitchen well equipped. Convenient shop a stones throw away. A bit disappointed the tumble dryer wasnât working and I thought the house could have been a bit cleaner but it wasnât bad. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend the house to others.

Our only minor quibble is that some of the furnishings look quite tired.
