The location is highly praised for its close proximity to the town, seafront, and the convenience of having a parking space. The views are also a highlight, contributing to a positive experience.
Comfort receives mixed reviews. While the property is found to be cosy and pleasant, there are comments about the need for better mattresses and the inconvenience of a slippery decking area. The heating issue also suggests room for improvement.
Facilities are adequate but several guests suggest the need for modernisation and maintenance, such as bathroom upgrades and kitchen equipment. The presence of a garden and conservatory are positives, but the mention of unusable oven shelves and limited bathroom space indicates some deficiencies.

The layout suited us perfectly, it was as if we each had our own wing! The dog loved the garden and the proximity to lovely walks. The bonus was the parking space and the friendly landlord!
