As a keen swimmer, the bay was safe to swim in daily and we had some lovely walks around the area. The apartment was perfectly located for the kids to play on the beach whenever they liked and the friendly neighbour lent us his binoculars so that we could watch the seals in the bay.

So relaxing with the most amazing view and the sound of the waves constantly, what more would you want. The local pub is very friendly and lovely food there. The Shack next to it was so convenient, lovely pasties and hot chocolate. We've already booked for next year! P.S Lovely coastal walks, up the hill to the right.
