A true gem for a peaceful break in beautiful nature and the ocean on your doorstep.

We were truly surprised. The holiday house had everything and more than what we needed. It is spacious and the view of the ocean from the deck and from inside the house was a plus. Little swallow mom and dad feeding babies was so exciting to watch, that is something you do not see often. The host was friendly and insightful, we felt totally at home. Thank you Chris, for a lovely stay.

Has everything a bach has. Lots of cutlery, serving plates, drinkware, toaster, kettle. Just do a food shop before you come, bring some condiments and its all good. Cozy place with decent living area with couches for a couple familys or group. Pity stay wasnt longer.
