Guests have praised the holiday rental for its comfortable, spacious, and well-furnished interiors, complemented by stunning views.

While parking can be tight and minor maintenance issues were noted, the property's overall charm and the thoughtful touch of a welcome treat have left a lasting positive impression.

The property is consistently described as clean and well cared for, with only a minor mention of stains on the carpet, which seems to be an isolated comment.

The location is highly praised for its fabulous views and is considered great by the reviewers, with no negative comments.

The property is regarded as comfortable, with comfy beds and a spacious layout. However, some minor suggestions for improvement, such as better quality bedding and additional rugs, have been made.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-stocked kitchen and good furnishings. Points were deducted for minor maintenance issues like lighting not working and doors that are difficult to open.

The provision of milk, tea, and coffee upon arrival was a welcome treat, indicating thoughtfulness. However, it should be noted that such gestures are appreciated but not guaranteed.

    Very spacious and spotlessly clean. The views and location are the best we have ever had. We arrived to a lovely welcome pack which was much appreciated. It had everything we could possibly need. Our only downside was the parking as we took 2 cars and parking spaces around the property were hard to come by and expensive. But we shall still return as out of season the parking is free. A really great holiday.

  • Richard

    The house is lovely with great views of sunsets over the sea.

  • Anita

    The kitchen is really well equipped and the views from rooms at the front are excellent. The parking space is very tight for a larger car but manageable. There is a good selection of games for entertainment on rainy days. A couple of the doors can be difficult to open as the catches don’t retract easily ie the door at the top of the first set of stairs from the back door entrance (we thought someone had been into the house and locked this door, it took a lot of jiggling to open it) and the bathroom heading towards the bedrooms (this is because the knob has to be turned almost 360 degrees from inside). A mirror near a plug in the second bedroom for hair styling would be useful too. We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely house and there are plenty of places nearby to visit. We would definitely go back.
