It's lovely and clean and there is everything you need for a home from home stay. The garden is great for the dog, nice and enclosed and secure and two minutes walk to the beach which she absolutely loved. There is a nice welcome pack and a very thoughtful touch is the box with dog shampoo and towels specifically for dog only use, very helpful when the dog has been in the sea. We found instructions for day of departure a bit prescriptive (strip beds, put bed linen here/towels here) especially when you can't arrive before 5pm but are still expected to leave by 10am but it wouldn't stop us from booking again. The owner was friendly and helpful.
