    The property is in an excellent location for exploring some lovely beaches.

  • Tim

    Property is in excellent condition, and great location to walk to all beaches in area. Fantastic stay and will be back next year.

  • Michelle

    Very friendly and helpful host. The only thing that could be improved - the double bed upstairs is very firm. My husband and son were ok with it, so I slept in the twin room, bed also firm but not quite as much so. Of course this is down to personal preference. That’s the only tweak. Everything else was perfect. Thank you
