The property was very well presented and maintained and with all the mod cons you probably have in your own home parking is adjacent to the property make sure to pack your swimsuit as the good sized pool is heated there is a clubhouse for a nice quiet drink and a chat and just a three minute stroll to the seafront the owner was in regular contact after I made my booking with updates and check in info everything about this stay was problem free I will definitely return

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Drop Anchor; to keep it short, I'll just list the misdemeanours...no brush to the handheld dustpan and brush. Other than that, a great stay. The shower was powerful and hot; that's what stands out for me. Oh, nearly forgot: only put a 4/5 for changeover because the key safe threw me because it's out of the way on the outside fuel storage tank, not on the stairs approach to the in/exit doorway or near the door. Facilities in the Cabin are excellent; everything has been thought of. Will be in touch with Ian & Jane to try to arrange next year's stay at Sandhills. Thanks for having us.
