The location was lovely and peaceful with easy stair access to the beautiful natural beach and nature reserve. The kids loved going off exploring in a safe area. The house was just right for 6 of us to stay in with our scatty dog. I also have to say the owner was especially lovely contacting us before we set off to see if their was anything we needed and that we knew how to work everything in the house. I really couldn't recommend this place more for a family holiday. Just brilliant
