We had a lovely cosy stay in ‘the lookout’. The flat was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were super comfy. The view from the living room of the north bay was spectacular…we loved eating our breakfast looking out at the beach. It’s walking distance to the north bay. We were given a parking permit and were able to park right outside the flat for free. The flat is on the third floor and there is no lift…but after walking up the stairs a few times we got used to it. A lovely place to stay, highly recommend booking your getaway at ‘the lookout’.

The pictures don't do it justice! Amazing view, comfort and cleanliness. The parking was sorted and the welcome gifts were a nice surprise. We enjoyed every minute of our stay.
