We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and our Pomeranian loved the outside area, she had plenty of space to run around. The house was comfortable, neat & tidy and very well appointed.
Enjoyed staying in this very comfortable, clean and quiet property with our cat. There was everything you need and more. It is in a lovely private setting, and only a couple of minutes or so walk to the beach.
We absolutely loved staying here. The house was clean, well maintained and has everything you could possibly need. The photos online did not do it justice.

Response from VrboOwner on Feb 20, 2025
Thankyou for being great guests and leaving the place clean and tidy.....welcome back anytime.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It had everything we needed to enjoy a few days near the beach as a family. The owners provided great instructions and were friendly and available as needed. Would definitely return next time we are in the area.
This was a great location, an easy walk to be beach!The house was very tidy, well fenced for the dogs and exactly what we were after.Really enjoyed relaxing on the back deck.
Great house for a family stay, but dog owners should be wary. Despite the fenced yard, the neighbors were hyper sensitive; they complained about barking after a few minutes. We ended up having to take the dog everywhere with us to avoid further issues, which really ruined the 'relaxing' vibe of the holiday.
Really cute little place in great location. Private and secure. Super clean and welcoming. Great feel about the place.

We stayed at Richards and Keitha,s house it was a joy to stay there
Roomy nicely laid out and the garden was a great place to relax and see the night out
Would stay there again in a heartbeat
The welcoming treats were greatly appreciated
Lovely spot, very peaceful and a very short walk to the beach. Lots of games and books left in the house so plenty for the kids to play with. Recommended
We had a lovely stay at this property in May. Loads of space, comfortable and loved the fire place which made the stay nice and cosy. We had our dog with us and there was plenty of space for him to run around. Thank you.
We really enjoyed our time as the house is secure and has everything you would need. We would like to note that we found the linen and bedding to be amazingly comfortable. :D
Very well set up. Lots of extras that were unexpected but very welcome.would definitely recommend
Wonderful
