Lovely property in a great location for exploring the area. The layout with the separate bedroom wings was excellent. Really well equipped and the dogs loved the enclosed garden. The coastal path within 10 minutes walk was a great asset and the walks in both directions was fabulous.

Relaxing stay with friends

This is the second time we have stayed at Mill view and it is just as good as we remembered. It suits two couples and their dogs perfectly as everyone has their own space, the weather was good and we enjoyed the outside space and being able to walk along the costal path. I’m sure we will return.
