Sitting by one of the windows with a cup of tea watching the the last of a beautiful sunset fade into darkness was a highlight. There are many things to do in the immediate vicinity and I really recommend climbing higher up the steps by the house and onto the hill for some fabulous walks and views. It was great having the parking permit and the 5-10 min walk to the car park not a problem - we were able to pull over on the side of the road by the house for a brief time to unload our luggage on arrival. The house is situated quite high above the main road into town but it is not at all noisy. You can hear the rattle of the occasional small train going past but all is very quiet at night. As many have commented on here, Dan the owner is very friendly and helpful and we really felt welcomed into this lovely home. Thank-you, Dan!

The views are really beautiful and the steps are a small price to pay for such a view. Communication with the owner was very good.

!! Beautiful house in an excellent position to make the most of its amazing sea and harbour views. House is so comfortable, clean, and fully equipped with everthing you need. Great communication from Dan, and a lovely welcome pack on arrival. Can't wait to return next year.
