Great views from elevated position of countryside and sea, seating areas around house to enjoy sun or shade. Easy access to town and coast path but return walk may be a little bit of a hike for some. Easy parking at property and in and around town as starting points for walks. Great kitchen for preparing meals and enjoying views and loved the dining area also for sunny breakfasts. No complaints at all. Plenty of beautiful walks in area so no need to venture far. Thanks so much
