Great old house
This house was perfect for our large group - 3 big families. Good set up and plenty of room for everyone. Loved the location just a short stroll to the beach, pub and shops. Its an older house but its in good condition, clean and tidy so you wont be disappointed. Communication and booking very easy. Great backyard and bbq was handy.
