  • Nora

    The flat has a fine outlook across Percy Park with nice side view to the sea, and access is easy. Bus stops are near and the Metro is only a short walk away. Perhaps the advice and instruction book could do with a bit of an update re refuse disposal and collection.

  • Denis

    Handy for bus and metro. Plenty of bars and eating places in the village. One minute walk to the beach. Thanks to Derek and Pauline for a lovely stay.
