Samantha
We booked this home for my Grandmaâs 90th birthday celebrations. The home is in a great location and the area was very quiet. The home has everything you could possibly need and more. The beds were very big & comfortable. We loved the coffee machine in the house so much that weâve just purchased the same one today. Sue was fantastic with communication and responded very quickly. Everyone in our party loved their stay and We canât wait to book this home again.
Sharon
Very comfy beds, lots of space and every kitchen item we needed. In a good spot 10 mins walk from south bay. Sue was also very helpful in our welcome. We were 3 couples and 2 single travellers and the 5 bedrooms provided all the space we needed. Would definitely recommend.
