The house was lovely, and in a great location. The garden was great and was very tidy, lovely for the dog. On the downside, I wouldn't bother with a hamper, as most of it looked like it was dragged from the back of a cupboard and was out of date!!!The bedding in the second bedroom was cheap and a couple of the towels needed replacing. We did have a nice break, but ditch the hamper👍

We had a fabulous stay at Mill House for the week between Christmas and the New Year. It was so warm and comfortable and we loved using the wood burning stove where the owners kindly left kindling and logs to use. The location was perfect, being just a 2 minute walk to the beach. The beach was beautiful and we loved the variety of walking both ways for miles down the coast line - great for the dog. All in all, we would not hesitate to return. The house was immaculate and had everything you could possibly want. The copper bath was a real treat to use.

A fabulous house in a great location - quiet residential street, easy walk to the beach, supermarkets within a 5-minute drive, and pubs within walking distance. Renovated to a very high specification with great attention to detail. A welcoming and relaxing environment for a dog-friendly stay, with a fully enclosed garden and wonderful walks along the beach. Perfect for our Christmas break with a 10ft Christmas tree and lovely log burner. The owners were really helpful and attentive, with quick responses to any questions we had.
